Subject: [bug#50563] Re: [bug#50563] [PATCH 2/2] gnu: gdm: Add Wayland session wrapper script.

Maxime: I agree that this was a very confusing wording. Here is a reformulation that I hope clears up any misunderstanding.
PS: `gdm-wayland-session-wrapper` does in fact set environment variables, only that it indirectly uses `/etc/profile` to do so. Otherwise, the default profile wouldn't be active in the wayland session.
