2019.4 Xfce version of Kali linux doesn't source /etc/profile ( and /etc/profile.d too )


In GNOME version, I think that /etc/profile is sourced by /etc/gdm3/Xsession script.

But, I can't find any other script to source /etc/profile in Xfce / lightdm version.


I found that /etc/profile could be sourced by another places like /etc/X11/Xsession.d .

But I'm not sure that this is correct solution and /etc/X11/Xsession.d is right place for sourcing /etc/profile.


I hope this problem will be solved properly in Kali Linux 2019.4 Xfce version.
