Hi Nathan,

Can you confirm to me that my attachment file is enough to reproduce the
bug?

I'm not sure if I have attached the file correctly, sorry for that.

  Hi,
  
  I'm am on Ubuntu 24.04. I'm using Chromium via snap with this version:
  
  ```sh
  $ snap list chromium
  Name      Version         Rev   Tracking       Publisher   Notes
  chromium  139.0.7258.138  3235  latest/stable  canonical✓  -
  ```
  
  I have installed the extension KeePassXC-Browser version 1.9.9.3 to
  connect Chromium to my KeePassXC instance 2.7.10 (and to fill HTTP forms
  automatically with my logins/passwords in KeepPassXC). But it doesn't
  work. The extension prints this message:
  
  ```txt
  KeePassXC-Browser has encountered an error:
  
  Cannot connect to KeePassXC. Check that browser integration is enabled in 
KeePassXC settings.
  ```
  
  But my KeePassXC settings are perfectly OK. For instance, if I run
  Chromium without snap like this:
  
- 
  ```sh
  # To run an unboxed Chromium instance.
  /snap/chromium/current/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chrome 
--user-data-dir=/home/flaf/snap/chromium/common/chromium
  ```
  
  the extension KeePassXC-Browser works perfectly without any change (HTTP
  forms are well automatically filled with my logins/passwords). So the
  problem probably comes from the snap encapsulation.
  
  It's a well-known problem which is appeared with the snap encapsulation.
  For instance, there was exactly the same problem with Firefox when it
  was switched to snap, and it was eventually resolved.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/2095385 which 
has been set to "status=Invalid" because the term of "regression" in the

Chromium switched to snap. But I think it's just a misunderstanding. The person 
who created this ticket probably meant that the extension no longer works since 
Chromium switched to snap.
