Re: Where to save stuff (in snap-agnostic way)

Sorry, I just found that each snap has its own "tmp" directory created in the /tmp directory of the system. I just created a file, and it looks like: root@liuxg:/tmp/snap.1000_snap.hello.fifo_TovLTW/tmp# ls anothefile Thanks & best regards, XiaoGuo On Sun, Feb 5, 2017 at 8:04 AM, XiaoGuo Liu

Hi Oli, Does it mean all of the snaps have the same /tmp or each snap has its own /tmp? I am a little bit confused about this. Thanks & best regards, XiaoGuo On Sat, Feb 4, 2017 at 6:43 PM, Oliver Grawert wrote: > hi, > Am Freitag, den 03.02.2017, 21:04 +0100 schrieb Luca

The results are the very same (apart for "namespace") on a real machine, so the LXD container shouldn't be the cause. On Sat, Feb 4, 2017 at 12:14 PM, Luca Dionisi wrote: > More in context: > > In a classic Ubuntu (but inside a LXD container) I run: >

Thanks all for the answer. There's a catch, though. I just checked in a classic Ubuntu what the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR env is set to for root. And, surprise, it's not set. So, since my app has to run as root, it seems that I'll have to check this possibility too. --Luca On Sat, Feb 4, 2017 at 3:47 AM,
