#31031: Tor Browser trying to read /etc/machine-id on start --------------------------------------+-------------------------- Reporter: rain-undefined | Owner: tbb-team Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Applications/Tor Browser | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: Reviewer: | Sponsor: --------------------------------------+--------------------------
Comment (by rain-undefined): Update: this may be related to an earlier ticket https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/20884 . For me the Tor Browser does not crash, and works happily even though it is denied `/etc/machine-id`. It does become unable to communicate with other applications using I-Bus (an example being my input method), which I think is expected after reading yawning's comment under that ticket. And if I include `<abstractions/dbus-session-strict>` (which will permit the browser to read `/etc/machine-id`) and `<abstractions/ibus>` in the profile, TB will start to work with I-Bus applications again. --- Also, thanks gk & sysrqb for working on this (although i cannot understand much yet) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/31031#comment:2> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
