Description Jim Perrin 2014-05-01 18:37:13 UTC 
Description of problem:
In some instances, right clicking on the desktop, and selecting 'open in terminal' delivers a shell with an incomplete path. It appears to have not processed ~/.bash_profile and thus does not have ~/.local/bin or ~/bin in the path. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nautilus-open-terminal-0.20-3.el7.x86_64
gnome-terminal-3.8.4-8.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
seems varied from irc discussions. For me this occurs every time I log in. For others it seems to only happen sporadically. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1. right click on gnome3 desktop -> open-in-terminal
2. see that $PATH doesn't contain ~/.local/bin or ~/bin
3.

Actual results:
echo $PATH
/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin

Expected results:
echo $PATH
/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/home/jperrin/.local/bin:/home/jperrin/bin

Additional info:

This appears sporadic, but when it does happen it can be maddening if you're dealing with ruby gems or bundler.

Sometimes I experiencing the same bug.

I don't know how to fix it, But I know the launch of nautilus has two ways.

- gnome-session launch the nautilus.
- dbus-daemon launch the nautilus.

Sometimes nautilus is started by gnome-session and at the other times it is started by dbus-daemon.

The dbus-daemon is started without login shell, So nautilus is started by dbus-daemon without login profiles.
