Sorry I missed that. I interpret that as meaning vlc won't be supported/affected by Portals integration even when it is done. :-( So either vlc has to support Portals (whatever that means), or the work Zygmunt is prototyping is the only hope we have of allowing access to arbitrary files.

I'll shut up for now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643706 Title: snap apps need to be able to browse outside of user $HOME dir. for Desktop installs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1643706/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
