** Attachment added: "Empty 'Home' for Chromium snap" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1798450/+attachment/5598233/+files/Screenshot_20220619_181021.png -- 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/1798450 Title: [snap] File dialogs show snap's home directory instead of user's Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: How to reproduce: - Find a web page that has a file chooser (you can just paste `<input type="file">` into an empty HTML page) - Click the "Choose File" button - Click "Home" if you didn't start here - See that Chromium uses `/home/$USER/snap/chromium/500` as the home folder Expected behavior: The file picker should use the user's home folder, not the snap's, because everything else would be confusing for end users. Versions: snap 2.35.4+18.10 snapd 2.35.4+18.10 series 16 ubuntu 18.10 kernel 4.18.11-surface-linux-surface Chromium 70.0.3538.67 snap To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1798450/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
