Bug#328479: xbase-clients: X11 unsets LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Package: xbase-clients
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-6
Severity: normal
Hi,
I'm filing this against xbase-clients, because it's the package that
contains xinit and I couldn't find any occurence of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in
/etc/X11 or in the startx-script, thus I assume xinit itself does this.
If this is not the case, please feel free to reassign the bugreport to
the right package.
The problem I have is, that startx /usr/bin/xterm "removes"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH from my environment. When logging in using tty1, I see
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib, but after I started X11 with that xterm it's
gone. The same thing happens when logging into kdm.
Andreas
PS: I need LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib for Sun's Java to find some .so's,
so please no discussion about this setting of LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
