Public bug reported:
I get this in email every night:
/etc/cron.daily/ubuntu-advantage-tools:
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/libesets_pac.so' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot
be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/libesets_pac.so' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot
be preloaded (cannot open shared object file): ignored.
NOTE: The shared library in question is part of the ESET antivirus
software for Linux. This is NOT a bug in ESET; the shared library path
referenced above is a symlink to a valid 64-bit shared library that
regular (non-snap) processes are able to preload just fine.
I dug into this, and /etc/cron.daily/ubuntu-advantage-tools calls
/usr/bin/ubuntu-advantage status, which calls /snap/bin/canonical-
livepatch status, which ends up calling snap-confine, which then fails
to open the shared library file:
open("/usr/lib/libesets_pac.so", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
I assume this is because snap-confine is doing a chroot or something
like that.
I'm not sure what the right fix is here. Is snap creating a copy of
/etc/ld.so.preload in its chroot? If so, should it strip out preloads
that aren't in the chroot?
I mean, we can argue about whether it's appropriate to be confining snap
processes in such a way that preloads can't be loaded, but if that's the
right decision, then it shouldn't complain about them.
