I'm not sure I understand the problem. How is ~/snap/chromium/1165/Downloads a read-only location?
Chromium (at least when not run headless) should default to your XDG Downloads directory, what does chrome://settings/downloads show? Can you share one of your Selenium-based download tests so that I can reproduce and investigate the problem? ** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1881040 Title: [snap] chromedriver does not download where configured Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I've recently been forced to upgrade to the SNAP based chromium setup. After being required to work through reconfiguring my $HOME, learn of the need to set up $XAUTHORITY I just now discovered that none of my Selenium based download tests work because the SNAP setup insists on downloading to: /home/xxx/snap/chromium/1165/Downloads rather than where the chromederiver download settings have been configured. Is there a way to override this?
