[Bug 1776800] Re: Unable to start snap applications if user's home directory is not /home/$USER
Hi Jeffrey and Erik! You are being heard :-) But this is not an easy task, and the amount of work required to support the case of home directories nested somewhere deeper inside /home is very different (read: lower) than that required to support home directories located elsewhere in the system. We are first tackling the first problem, and this bug will be closed once that part is fixed.

Any solution needs to work with multiple home folder locations that can be located anywhere.

[Bug 1776800] Re: Unable to start snap applications if user's home directory is not /home/$USER
Just to make sure the note is here, my home directory is not in /home at all, but located under /u which is a mount point for an external volume on another disk. I experienced the same problem trying to run a snap. Whatever the solution, it should be generalized to any $HOME location. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1776800 Title: Unable to start snap applications if user's home directory is not /home/$USER To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1776800/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1776800] Re: Unable to start snap applications if user's home directory is not /home/$USER
How can this be sitting around here for 3 years unassigned with *high* priority? And then apparently it's not even considered a blocker for replacing Firefox in Ubuntu 22.04 with the snap.
