[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.
