[Pkg-xfce-devel] Bug#784158: lightdm: /etc/environment also not read

[strk]

Package: lightdm
Version: 1.10.3-3
Followup-For: Bug #784158

Dear Maintainer,

I was configuring a systemwide http proxy

I've added http_proxy env variable to /etc/environment

X application did not see the env variable, ssh sessions did

I expected X to also see the env variable

not sure if it's the same issue as the original bug report,
anyway adding a line to /etc/pam.d/lightdm and /etc/pam.d/lightdm-autologin
to do what the comment above pam_env.so line stated did fix the issue.
