[Regression Potential] TBD [Other Info] * snap-confine is technically an integral part of snapd which has an SRU exception and is allowed to introduce new features and take advantage of accelerated procedure. For more information see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SnapdUpdates == # Pre-SRU bug description follows # == The kernel (4.8.0-19.21), apparmor (2.10.95-4ubuntu5), and lxd (2.4-0ubuntu1) needed for running snaps inside of LXD containers (bug #1611078) have all landed in Yakkety. We should be able to install squashfuse and snapd 2.16+16.10 (from yakkety-proposed) and then run snaps inside of unprivileged LXD containers. I have verified that it works well for the root user inside of the container but there are some issues when a normal user attempts to run a snap command. # Create yakkety container named "yakkety" tyhicks@host:~$ lxc launch ubuntu-daily:devel yakkety Creating yakkety Starting yakkety # Enter the container, enable yakkety-proposed, update, install the dependencies tyhicks@host:~$ lxc exec yakkety bash root@yakkety:~# echo "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ \ yakkety-proposed restricted main multiverse universe" > \ /etc/apt/sources.list.d/proposed.list root@yakkety:~# echo -e "Package: *\nPin: release a=yakkety-proposed\n\ Pin-Priority: 400" > /etc/apt/preferences.d/proposed-updates root@yakkety:~# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y ... root@yakkety:~# apt-get install -y squashfuse snapd/yakkety-proposed ... # Rebooting the container should not be needed but is done for completeness root@yakkety:~# reboot tyhicks@host:~$ lxc exec yakkety bash # Install the hello-world snap root@yakkety:~# snap install hello-world hello-world (stable) 6.3 from 'canonical' installed # Snap commands work fine as root inside the container but not as a normal user root@yakkety:~# /snap/bin/hello-world.env SNAP_USER_COMMON=/root/snap/hello-world/common ... root@yakkety:~# su - ubuntu -c '/snap/bin/hello-world.env' internal error, please report: running "hello-world.env" failed: open /snap/hello-world/27/meta/snap.yaml: permission denied # The normal user can't access /snap/hello-world/27 because of some oddness with the # dentry root@yakkety:~# ls -al /snap/hello-world total 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 5 21:09 . drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Oct 5 21:09 .. drwxrwxr-x 4 root root 0 Jul 11 21:20 27 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 2 Oct 5 21:09 current -> 27 root@yakkety:~# su - ubuntu -c 'ls -al /snap/hello-world' ls: cannot access '/snap/hello-world/27': Permission denied total 8 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 5 21:09 . drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Oct 5 21:09 .. d????????? ? ? ? ? ? 27 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 2 Oct 5 21:09 current -> 27 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snap-confine/+bug/1630789/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
