Joplin-desktop snap fails to start with ego

[Hooloovoo]

Hello,

I think ego is great, thank you for your work.

If I try to run joplin-desktop (a snap installed on my 22.04 system), I get an error that the scope is not a snap cgroup:

$ ego -u username joplin-desktop
warning: machinectl (systemd-container) is not installed
warning: Falling back to 'sudo', some desktop integration features may not work
/user.slice/user-1001.slice/[email protected]/app.slice/app-org.gnome.Terminal.slice/vte-spawn-3a9c849b-30e2-43d6-977e-4ff8e5d1299b.scope is not a snap cgroup

This did used to work for me (only for a day or something, as I only just upgraded), but I suspect the issue is on the snap side.

Do you know if snaps should work with ego?

Hi. I haven't looked into this at all, how to integrate container runtimes like Snap and Flatpak into ego.

I suspect it won't work out of the box. It should be solvable, but the scale of effort required is uncertain.

I am surprised to hear you say "This did used to work for me". Was it always a Snap package back when it worked?

Flatpak works flawlessly, I used bottles before ego so it was easier to move the bottles into ego and keep using it.
