[Bug 380360] Re: X.Org session start (via xinit) loses LD_LIBRARY_PATH

 

Happy to confirm that the workaround from comment #6
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/366728/comments/21) is working
for Ubuntu 10.04.

It would be good to know whether LD_LIBRARY_PATH is ignored in $HOME/.profile, /etc/profile, and /etc/environment since Ubuntu 9.04 a) with intention or b) by accident. 
In case of a), which intention? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables lacks an explanation, and https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/366728 doesn't explain it either.
In case of b), it is a bug that I would consider serious.
