The snap confinement also seems to create a number of other problems. I've also observed:
* Webmail - if I receive an attachment of certain types (libreoffice is broken; pdf is OK), then I get a "please confirm you want to allow chromium to open this file" dialog every single time. * password manager (save passwords) is broken - it won't remember passwords I saved, nor does it remember my preference not to save the passwords for web-development on localhost, but prompts every time. * cross site logins are broken (sign into gmail for work, and other sites that use that gmail auth just fail). * some extensions break (e.g. the JSONViewer is silently-non- functional.) All of these are fixed if I download and unzip the binary from here: https://download-chromium.appspot.com/ - though it sacrifices the entire point of running a distro. I understand the rationale for saving developer time, but this is really broken for me and my company. If it would help, we'd happily be invoiced £500 by the Ubuntu project if you could go back to the deb build - even if you chose only to ship alternate releases. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1849371 Title: [snap] Cannot run chromium as user www-data because home directory is /var/www To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1849371/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
