Public bug reported: When pressing alt-F2, if I enter "firefox" for instance, "command not found" is displayed. This happens to all executables, located in /bin as well as /usr/bin. Entering just "r" still restarts the shell. I suspect the PATH is not being taken into account. If I use full pathnames, e.g. I type in "/usr/bin/firefox", the file is opened in gedit. I can also type in full names of directories and they are opened.
