Upstream sets these variables by default, see /etc/apparmor.d/tunables/xdg-user-dirs - and I'd be very surprised if Ubuntu would patch this away ;-) To find out the real issue, can you please attach your /var/log/audit/audit.log? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to apparmor in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2127486 Title: [Ubuntu 25.10 Questing] Transmission (BT Client): access denied to user Download directory Status in apparmor package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Ubuntu 25.10 Questing, clean install without further modifications. Transmission (BT Client) access to user Downloads directory is denied. I think that the problem may be that several XDG variables are not set/filled, for instance $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR. The apparmor profiles that rely in any of these variables may lead to authorization errors in their corresponding application. For instance the "transmission" profile contains this definition: # cat /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/transmission-common | grep -i xdg owner @{HOME}/@{XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR}/ r, owner @{HOME}/@{XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR}/** rw, Additional info: ---------------- # lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 25.10 Release: 25.10 # apt-cache policy apparmor apparmor: Instalados: 5.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu8 Candidato: 5.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu8 Tabla de versión: *** 5.0.0~alpha1-0ubuntu8 500 500 https://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports questing/main arm64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apparmor/+bug/2127486/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
