It gets set by LXD when you have an unconfigured lxdbr0 bridge (without
an IP address). Once you configure your bridge's network, that variable
is no longer set.

Do reconfigure lxdbr0 you can do: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -p medium lxd

If you already did configure it and the environment variable is still
exported, you can manually clean it up with: lxc profile edit default
