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.
