[Group.of.nepali.translators] [Bug 1612684] Re: dies when run in a place that is not inside the snap chroot
This bug was fixed in the package snap-confine - 1.0.38-0ubuntu0.16.04.10 --- snap-confine (1.0.38-0ubuntu0.16.04.10) xenial; urgency=medium * debian/usr.lib.snapd.snap-confine: - synchronize apparmor profile with upstream 1.0.40 release. (LP: #1597842, LP: #1615113, LP: #1584456) snap-confine (1.0.38-0ubuntu0.16.04.9) xenial; urgency=medium * debian/patches/04_not_die_unknown_locations.patch: - move to /var/lib/snapd/void (with mode 0) if the current location cannot be preserved (LP: #1612684) -- Zygmunt Krynicki Wed, 24 Aug 2016 20:31:12 +0200 ** Changed in: snap-confine (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of नेपाली भाषा समायोजकहरुको समूह, which is subscribed to Xenial.

This was somewhat annoying and surprising to various users so it was changed to a more graceful failure mode where snap-confine would change the working directory to /var/lib/snapd/void that has permissions . This results in applications working gracefully as long as they don't care about the current directory. If they do they also fail gracefully by just being unable to access anything in that directory. The fix involves just doing a chdir() to /var/lib/snapd/void and appropriate packaging changes to ensure that it has the correct permissions. For more information about the execution environment, please see this article http://www.zygoon.pl/2016/08/snap-execution-environment.html [Test Case] The test case can be found here: https://github.com/snapcore/snap-confine/blob/master/spread- tests/regression/lp-1595444/task.yaml NOTE: the bug number above is different as the desired design changed during the release. The test case is ran automatically for each pull request and for each final release. It can be reproduced manually by executing the shell commands listed in the prepare/execute/restore phases manually. The commands there assume that snapd and snap-confine are installed. No other additional setup is necessary. [Regression Potential] * Regression potential is small as the previous behaviour was unexpected (applications would just fail to start) and now they will start but perhaps the current working directory will be changed. * The fix was tested on Ubuntu via spread and on several other distributions successfully. [Other Info] * This bug is a part of a major SRU that brings snap-confine in Ubuntu 16.04 in line with the current upstream release 1.0.41. * This bug was included in an earlier SRU and is now fixed in Ubuntu. I am updating the template here to ensure that the process is fully documented from 1.0.38 all the way up to the current upstream release 1.0.41. * 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.
