Bugzilla Bug 159890

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; cs; rv:1.8.0.9)
Gecko/20061231 Firefox/1.5.0.9
Build Identifier: 

When I log in using agetty as root OR as user, everything is all right as well
as loging in as root using qingy. But when I log in using qingy as normal user,
locales are not set, PATH contains only basic /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin etc,
so I guess /etc/env.d isn't sourced.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge qingy (0.7.4)
2. log in as user
3. check env. variables

Actual Results:  
/etc/env.d isn't sourced so locales aren't set, PATH isn't set correctly...
extremly annoying since my language is pain without right locales.

Expected Results:  
source /etc/env.d and don't be naughty login manager...

Thanks for the heads up. Yet, your issue should already be fixed in qingy
0.9.4, which is in Portage, masked and pending stabilization. You should try
out that version...

Yes, in sys-apps/qingy-0.9.4 this issue is fixed for console login, however
when I use fluxbox X session (x11-wm/fluxbox-0.9.15.1-r1,
/etc/X11/Sessions/fluxbox) the problem is exactly the same. I really want to
fix this, if you give me direction I 'll try to do so myself, but I don't have
the slightest idea what to do...

The problem is that /etc/env.d is sourced only for login shells, but afaik a
login shell should be fired up only if you want a command prompt, not when you
want it to start something (i.e. xinit) and die when this program closes...
Doing otherwise may even result in the command failing to start at all (it
happens for if you use zsh, for example)...

Well, good you mentioned that example as I actually DO use zsh and when I use
bash instead, it works. Any ideas (except switching to bash;]) ? 

Well, what is the problem exactly? First thing I do when I fire up my Gnome
environment it to fire up a terminal, and I tell it to start my shell as a
login shell, so no problem there...

The problem is /etc/profiles isn't sourced for X sessions with qingy and zsh as
login shell in /etc/passwd, nothing more, nothing less. It's terrible as
locales aren't set so fonts in everything using my lang. are messed up and PATH
isn't set so I can't run apps not in standard system PATH (/usr/games/bin for
example)... System isn't usable that way. It works properly with bash+qingy and
even zsh+agetty so I don't understand what exactly is wrong... I made it work
by appending line

source /etc/profiles

to /usr/bin/startfluxbox which I use to start FB. It doesn't work out-of-box
for XFCE either... It's quite a WTF and it almost pissed me so much I was going
to dd if=/dev/one of=/dev/hda3 (yep, I have /dev/one working:-P) to my gentoo
partition... life without qingy is meaningless, don't you think;o)

Well, well,
finally I was able to get to the root of the problem...

The problem is not that (like I thought before) zsh is not able to fire up a
program when started as a login shell. It does, only on my machine the
execution failed because PATH was not set correctly and zsh could not find the
executables I wanted to launch. Upon further investigation, I discovered that
zsh, unlike bash, when invoked as a login shell does not source /etc/profile,
sourcing /etc/zprofile (that is /etc/zsh/zprofile on my Gentoo box) instead.
Only, PATHs are set by Gentoo in /etc/profile, thus adding to my
/etc/zsh/zprofile a
. /etc/profile
solved all the environmental issues on my machine. I just committed to qingy
svn repository a change that makes qingy start (again) every shell as a login
shell, and I should release a new version in a day or two...
Yet I think that Gentoo's default /etc/zsh/zprofile should be fixed.

qingy 0.9.5 is out and in Portage, and it fixes the login shell issues... zsh
still has to provide decent PATHs, though...

With zsh bug closed this should be fixed, too...
