Public bug reported:
I added a line to /etc/fstab to put my ~/.cache on a tmpfs:
tmpfs /home/user1/.cache tmpfs
nodev,nosuid,mode=1777,size=1G,defaults 0 0
or:
tmpfs /home/user1/.cache tmpfs
noatime,nodiratime,nodev,nosuid,mode=1777,size=1G,defaults 0 0
[I tried a couple of versions, and rebooted a number of times, not sure
of the exact configuration, sorry.]
After reboot, the system had no network access. "ping 1.1.1.1" or
similar failed. I am using wired Ethernet. Tried various fixes. I
eventually fixed the problem by uninstalling gufw. I'm not 100%
positive gufw was the problem. But now (with first form of fstab line)
everything works.
Is gufw storing something in ~/.cache that it shouldn't be ? I should
be able to wipe ~/.cache and reboot and have everything work, correct ?
I had no rules set in gufw, just enabled and Incoming=Deny. System
worked okay with gufw before I added that fstab line and rebooted.
I'm on Kubuntu 20.10, kernel 5.8.0-41-generic, gufw 20.10.0-0ubuntu1
