Bug Description

On launching Gnome-based apps within a Lubuntu session I regularly received console errors like the following from even console apps...

** (apport-gtk:15078): WARNING **: Error retrieving accessibility bus address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any .service files

I have found that adding the following line to /etc/profile ...

export NO_AT_BRIDGE=1

...suppresses the requests for the accessibility bus. This is a feature request to configure Lubuntu desktop to include this Environment variable through /etc/profile or equivalent.

An equivalent functionality is allegedly possible through declarations within /etc/security/pam_env.conf although I haven't tested this. Another Lubuntu-specific location may be better but I'm not that familiar with Lubuntu/LXDE session configuration files.

Note: I'm running Lubuntu with the Compiz window manager and gtk-window-decorator (I don't know if this is relevant, and kind of doubt it).

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. There have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time you reported the bug and your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates. It would help us a lot if you could test it on a currently supported Ubuntu version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the updated logs by running only once:
apport-collect <bug #>

and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue.
