Anyone know how to fix this?

Snaps now litter across the file system, so are no longer the
user-specific install they seemed to be.
I don't think there is a simple fix - you cant use bind-dirs for the
devices under /dev, and I'm guessing the /tmp directory is created per
boot.


Thanks unman, its a pity, i very much prefer just using a repo, or 
perhaps a flatpak but there are some apps (authy in this case) that i 
cant seem to install any other way... maybe wine but not sure its worth 
the hassle?

[qubes-users] snap issues, related to the filesystem outside of ~/ ?

2021-06-10 Thread Stumpy
 

I tried installing snaps in a debian template and then 

but while it ran fine the first time, after restarting it stopped
working. As I wanted to be sure it was not a qubes issue I posted on the
snapcraft forum [1] and the question they asked that made me think it
was qubes related was

 _"Is this being run inside a container? It seems to imply that either
/dev or /tmp/snap.rootfs_IeI049/ do not exist, but previously in the log
the tmp dir was created by snap-confine"_

So, AFAIK i installed it according to the qubes instructions [2] but am
getting various errors that are starting to point to the ephemeral
nature of appvms (only the home dir is retained).

Anyone know how to fix this?
