In eoan chromium-browser is a transitional package that installs the chromium snap. You hit an unsupported home directory setup, apparently: snapd assumes a home directory mounted under /home. This is similar to bug #1849371, even though the error message is slightly different, and it fails at a different stage. I'll mark it a duplicate bug. Quoting Zygmunt: « The limitation on HOME is well known and for now has no workaround other than to bind mount whatever custom home directory to /home/$LOGNAME. » ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1849371 [snap] Cannot run chromium as user www-data because home directory is /var/www -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1849729 Title: chromium-browser fails to start after upgrade to eoan To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1849729/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
