When i run gnome-terminal with the -e to execute a command the PATH used to find the command is not the PATH used in the terminal initiating the command

For example:

I open an terminal and set the PATH to be "./:$PATH

type in gnome-terminal -e cluster_node

It can't find the cluster node. if I type gnome-terminal -e ./cluster_node it works

If I add in the /etc/environemtn the PATH ./ then it works always/

I think it doesn't use theterminal environment PATH from which it was launched.
