Public bug reported: Description: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS Release: 20.04
chromium 99.0.4844.51 1926 latest/stable canonical✓ - When starting chromium-browser, I specify the --user-data- dir=/path/to/special/location, but the snap installation (took me awhile to figure out was not apt, but sneaky snap), takes the liberty of adding '--user-data-dir=/home/guest/snap/chromium/common/chromium' directly after my flag. Well there is a good reason I set the user-data-dir, because its on a terminal with OverlayFS (a read only file system), and there is a separate partion for read/write that I point it to, so it maintains the data between reboots. Please don't override peoples required preferences. ** Affects: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1965186 Title: Snap changes the specified user data on it own accord To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1965186/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
