Public bug reported:
I develop using Selenium-over-chromedriver on a current 19.10.Here are
the chrome versions I have (dpkg side):
ii chromium-browser 79.0.3945.79-0ubuntu0.19.10.2
amd64 Transitional package - chromium-browser -> chromium
snap
ii chromium-chromedriver 79.0.3945.79-0ubuntu0.19.10.2
amd64 Transitional package - chromium-chromedriver ->
chromium snap
I know a recent upgrade introduced snap-based packages for chromium 79,
and now I find that all my tests fail to run. Under the cover, this
seems to be the problem:
$ /usr/bin/chromedriver
cannot perform operation: mount --rbind /home
/tmp/snap.rootfs_ZmHWri//home: Permission denied
I'm not familiar with snap, but I see possibly related issues:
- (Different error message, but headline is similar) upstream at
https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/7788
- Some references in Google that snap might not be happy with $HOME not
being under /home, and note that I have a historic installation of ZFS,
with /home as a (soft)link to /main, not a "normal" top level directory,
and with my home set as follows:
$ echo $HOME
/main/srhaque
I'm happy to help diagnose further, but am not sure what might be
relevant. Any clues welcome as I am rather stuck.
