Bug#539395: gnome-settings-daemon: Keyboard Shorcuts does not provide user environment

Package: gnome-settings-daemon
Version: 2.26.1-2
Severity: normal

Hello,

This bug has already been reported upstream:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582436

And has been confirmed in the Ubuntu bugtracker:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/373111

Basically, custom keyboard shortcuts will not provide the user's environment to 
the application. This is particularly annoying you use these shortcuts to open 
a terminal for various reasons like:

- Wrong home path at shell opening,
- SSH_AUTH_SOCK not well defined.

I reported this bug to make sure the fix will be added when the upstream will 
provide a patch.

Cheers,
Alexandre
