Bug description:
upstart in user session manages environmental variables and most
things have them, however Alt-f2 started processes lack them.
[Impact]
Some environment variables are missing from apps that are launcher from
Alt+f2 command lens, or in general with dbus-activation (an example might be
gnome-terminal, global menu not working).
[Test case]
Super Key -> "xterm" -> Enter -> env | grep SSH
it should return something like:
SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/run/user/$UID/keyring-<random-stuff>/ssh
Alt+F2 -> "xterm" -> Enter -> env | grep SSH
The returned values should match the results got from the xterm
instance that has been ran from unity dash application lens (the one
opened with Super).
The same should be checked for the variable XDG_MENU_PREFIX
Before this fix happened we had this result:
via Super Key -> the environment is correct
via Alt-F2 -> it is not
[Regression potential]
Nothing known. Some variables could be overridden, but this is
expected.
