Public bug reported: OS- ubuntu 24.10 package - epiphany-browser 47.0-1 (deb package)
while trying to install site(i.e.protonmail and microsoft.com) as web app on gnome web (aka epiphany browser) expected to get a get shortcut to appear in app menu instead following message was displayed in terminal (epiphany:5621): epiphany-WARNING **: 00:11:27.295: Failed to install web app, PrepareInstall() failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.portal.Error.InvalidArgument: Dynamic launcher icon failed validation Problems Seems to be in ubuntu systems only The following fix I found on the web worked fine The following workaround/configuration recommended by the WebApps app also fixed this GNOME Web issue on my ubuntu system: https://etbe.coker.com.au/2024/04/24/ubuntu-24-04-bubblewrap/ The workaround/configuration is to allow the creation of bubblewrap namescapes in the ubuntu apparmor configuration. The web page suggest either to upgrade to SElinux or to create a file named /etc/apparmor.d/bwrap with the following contents: abi <abi/4.0>, include <tunables/global> profile bwrap /usr/bin/bwrap flags=(unconfined) { userns, # Site-specific additions and overrides. See local/README for details. include if exists <local/bwrap> } I applied this configuration change to my system and GNOME Web's feature "Install as webapp..." is working as expected for me.
