--- Comment #6 from joergml...@gmail.com --- This is the issue: ./installdeps-ubuntu.sh: line 328: /etc/apt/preferences.d/firefox-no-snap: Permission denied sudo cat > /etc/apt/preferences.d/firefox-no-snap << EOF Package: firefox* Pin: release o=Ubuntu* Pin-Priority: -1 EOF The redirection works as this: The non-root shell tries to open the file for writing before it invokes "sudo cat". I changed it to sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/firefox-no-snap << EOF Package: firefox* Pin: release o=Ubuntu* Pin-Priority: -1 EOF and tried again. This second run installed firefox as a regular package, not a snap anymore. Doesn't the ~/snap directory contain among other things all bookmarks, saved logins and everything else for firefox? Should that directory really be silently deleted by your script? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
