> The whole issue also raises the silly question: what is so security- sensitive about /tmp?
Another, non-privileged, user can write to it, so could leave a trojan (malware) in there ... Ubuntu has /tmp/user/uid which I assume exists to work around that issue, but chromium wont let me see /tmp/user/<my uid>/ or file:///tmp/user/<my uid>/ One workaround would be to consistently use a directory you can access through snap, such as /home/USER/tmp, instead of /tmp. (Globally) setting TMP, TEMP, TMPDIR and/or TEMPDIR may help with this ... https://www.the-art-of-web.com/php/where-is-tmp/ describes some other "solutions" to this problem that have caused problems. -- 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
