[Bug 1722151] [NEW] Incorrect syntax when writing to ~/.pam_environment

 

Public bug reported:

While investigating bug #1662031, I found out that /usr/share/language-
tools/save-to-pam-env writes to ~/.pam_environment using an incorrect
syntax: "VARIABLE=value" on each line. The expected syntax is "VARIABLE
[DEFAULT=[value]] [OVERRIDE=[value]]" (man pam_env.conf).
