Subject: firejail no longer allows some programs to run
Package: firejail
Version: 0.9.38-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Firejail no longer allows certain programs to run in the sandbox e.g.
iceweasel (and other programs based on firefox e.g. tor browser,
icedove), and java programs. It simply exits without starting the
program (parent is shutting down) or hangs in the case of java.

The Chromium browser seems to start normally, though.

I have classed this as "important" as many of the programs I would
normally use firejail with, no longer run!

This started very recently - firejail used to work as expected.

Thanks for any advice!

Guy
