Bug#923500: snapd: non-classic snap not confined

2021-02-15 Thread James Henstridge
I work on some parts of snapd at Canonical, so thought I'd weigh in. I've got a few of points to add: 1. In the "snap debug confinement" output, it says "policy:downgraded". This indicates that snapd didn't detect enough AppArmor features to enforce the full "strict confinement" sandbox, so it sw

Bug#974892: golang-dbus does not expose package under new import path

FYI, the next version of gnome-vfs-obexftp will not require the "-x" argument to hcid. Instead of using hcid to create/destroy /dev/rfcommX files, it uses Bluetooth RFCOMM sockets. As well as making connection a bit faster, this also means that it will work with newer bluez-utils where the org.b
