The content interface does not allow using arbitrary absolute paths. When it was first defined all paths were relative to "$SNAP". We now support various other bases but as a legacy fallback we still allow "plain" paths (that don't start with one of the recognized variables) and we insert "$SNAP" automatically.
The content interface does not allow arbitrary placements of mouted data. The future work on the "overmount" interface may facilitate that but it does not yet exist at this time. ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1681130 Title: Absolute paths used with the 'content' interface are actually relative to $SNAP To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1681130/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
