Package: lightdm
Version: 1.26.0-7
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: nrbrtx@gmail.com
Dear Maintainer,
it seems that *lightdm* still does not source ~/.profile .
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create script in ~/bin and desktop-file for it
```
mkdir ~/bin
cat <<EOF > ~/bin/mew
#!/bin/bash
zenity --info --text "Mew!"
EOF
chmod +x ~/bin/mew
source ~/.profile
mew
cat <<EOF > ~/Desktop/mew.desktop
#!/usr/bin/env xdg-open
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Icon=/usr/share/icons/mate/32x32/apps/access.png
Icon[en_US]=/usr/share/icons/mate/32x32/apps/access.png
Name[en_US]=mew
Exec=mew
Terminal=false
Name=mew
EOF
sudo reboot
```
2. Double click on *mew* desktop file on Desktop
Expected results:
* zenity window is shown
Actual results:
* error is shown "There was an error launching the application."
Additional details:
1. I can't understand what makes you unique from Ubuntu. They source needed
files - see https://github.com/canonical/lightdm/blob/main/debian/lightdm-
session#L38 .
2. The same happens on Debian 10.
3. This problem prevents normal usage of Ubuntu Make on Debian - see
https://github.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-make/issues/678 .

Hi,
I think there are already some duplicated about this, but yes, ~/.profile is
not a LightDM configuration file so it doesn't have any reason to read it.
/etc/profile (and ~/.profile for some extent) is a bash (or at least login
shell) configuration file.
Regards,
