Yea, I probably should have started with devmode.  Thanks for the advice about
syslogs; I'll check it out and see what I can find.

OK, so it looks like apparmor was indeed responsible.  The loglines in question:

I'm not experienced with apparmor, so could someone explain exactly what this means? (I get the general idea, but the specifics would be useful to understand precisely.)

In particular, is there an obvious reason why this might be showing up with the dub snap, when the earlier ldc2 snap didn't have this problem? I would guess because the ldc2 instance used by the snap-packaged dub is internal to the snap and does not benefit from the home-directory interface that dub itself gets?

Setting the containment to devmode removes the problem, but it would be nice to be able to have strict confinement earlier rather than later.
