[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1771858@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This bug was fixed in the package systemd - 229-4ubuntu21.22

---------------
systemd (229-4ubuntu21.22) xenial; urgency=medium

  [ Dan Streetman ]
  * d/t/systemd-fsckd, d/t/cmdline-upstart-boot:
    - skip on s390x; requires grub (LP: #1830477)
  * d/p/ask-password-prevent-buffer-overrow-when-reading-fro.patch:
    - prevent buffer overflow when reading keyring (LP: #1814373)

  [ Dimitri John Ledkov ]
  * Specify Ubuntu's Vcs-Git

  [ Balint Reczey ]
  * Append /snap/bin to default PATH.
    Snapd ships snapd-env-generator, but systemd does not not support
    environment generators. Hard-coding /snap/bin is less risky than
    backporting environment generator support and since snaps are considered
    to be first class packages on Ubuntu /snap/bin can safely added to
    the default PATH. (LP: #1771858)

  [ Ioanna Alifieraki ]
  * d/p/systemctl-Replace-check_one_unit-by-get_state_one_un.patch
    - Backport upstream PR#2768 needed for next patch
  * d/p/systemctl-load-unit-if-needed-in-systemctl-is-active.patch
    - Backport upstream PR#7997 to fix alias service reports inactive while
      aliased is active (LP: #1828892)

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * This means that software installed via snap isn't transparently
  available for units to use.  As snaps are first-class citizens in
  Ubuntu, we should update the PATH.

   * When a generator started to be provided by systemd, it was
  recognized that $PATH is not correctly set, nonetheless, due to an
  environment bug that systemd generators run in.

  [Testcase]

  # make snapd-env-generator executable if it is not
  $ sudo chmod +x /usr/lib/systemd/system-environment-generators/snapd-env-generator

  # reboot, then test the effect of the fix
  $ systemd-run /usr/bin/env
  $ journalctl -e | grep PATH

  Output should contain /snap/bin

  Output should contain a complete and a valid PATH, i.e.
  PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/snap/bin" or similar.

  [Regression Potential]

   * snapd generator was already fixed separately to cause no harm, when
  running under a broken systemd. With the corrected environment,
  generators will now run with a correct PATH out of the box. A slight
  change of PATH will be observed by all generators, when running in
  containers/initramfs-less boots. However most generators will not be
  affected as they typically do not execute external binaries.
