This is *not* fixed. I still see this issue in a recent install of Ubuntu 20.04, where $XDG_CACHE_HOME is set. We have home dirs mounted via network, so user caches were moved to local storage to sanitize network load. The right and perfectly valid way of doing so is setting $XDG_CACHE_HOME. Snapd honors this variable, from what I get from related bug reports. However, it appears that snaps are still not allowed access to the direcrory configured in this environment variable.
This is a production environment for 800+ users who rely on chromium and Ubuntu. I *really, honestly* need this fixed ASOP. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1580463 Title: Snap blocks access to system input methods (ibus, fcitx, ...)
