In order to use portals, the Libreoffice upstream source needs to change their file dialogs to the newer gtk native APIs:
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/gtk3-GtkFileChooserNative.html So instead of using GtkFileChooserDialog, we should implement GtkFileChooserNative. Since this is needed for the snap, we should submit a patch upstream refactoring their class to implement these changes. I think this would be very to good to have eventually but not a super high priority so marking this as a wishlist item. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1881603 Title: [snap] Cannot open attached file from e-mail Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I installed the LibreOffice snap to get a newer version compared to the apt package. When I receive a LibreOffice document as attachment and try to open it from Thunderbird, I get the following error message: """ /tmp/mozilla-antoine0/mydoc.docx doesn't exist """ I don't understand the point of restricting filesystem access from a word processor. At least this is a clear regression from the apt package.
