    There is a fairly new downloader on the scene for Linux that you might consider building a profile for. It is called Persepolis Download Manager. It can be found here: https://persepolisdm.github.io/ It is similar to Internet Download Manager though it is not at that stage in its development yet.

    I downloaded from your site firejail-0.9.44.10-1.x86_64.rpm and installed it on my Fedora 25 host (fully up-to-date). Seems to work fine.
    However I needed to modify a supplied profile (transmission-gtk.profile), so I copied that to ~/.config/firejail and then ran “firejail transmission-gtk” again to make sure it was working. Nope.
    The problem was that firejail found and started processing my .config copy OK but when it processed the line “include /etc/firejail/disable-common.inc” and attempted to execute the first line of *that* file (“include /etc/firejail/disable-common.local”) it failed because “no such file or directory”.
    I then created an (empty *.local” in /etc/firejail for each of the *.inc files containing an include directive like this.
    Then everything worked. I don’t know why these “.local” includes don’t cause trouble when the *.inc
    file found in /etc/firejail is processed by firejail but causes trouble when the *.inc file is in ~/.config/firejail.
    Suggest you allow these .local files to not-exist, or pre-create empty ones. (I do think having this feature
    is a good idea — *if* installing a new release will not override any .local files — as it is handy to be able to
    add restrictions or whatever for generic local consumption in /etc/firejail without having these changes disappear after an update of firejail. Perhaps a separate (sub-)directory in /etc for them would be better…)

    I said: “I don’t know why these “.local” includes don’t cause trouble when the *.inc
    file found in /etc/firejail is processed by firejail but causes trouble when the *.inc file is in ~/.config/firejail.”
    That was wrong: I meant ” *.profile file”, not the “*.inc file”. I.e. I copied transmission-gtk.profile to ~/.config/firejail and *then* firejail couldn’t handle the “include….local” inside /etc/firejail/*.inc files. But obviously firejail was not unhappy when it processed the same transmission-gtk.profile in /etc/firejail.
    Sorry about that.

    Hello.
    I am having some issues with the new versions (0.9.46), after running sudo firecfg.
    Namely:

    1. Opening files in file manager won’t call firejail. Example, opening a video file will not make use of firejail or the firejail vlc profile.
    2. Wanting to create a “.local” file to some of the profiles (so I can have my own customization) I tried “sudo gedit” and it didn’t work. Which to a certain extent makes sense (gedit profile has the noroot option, so gedit can’t be exploited). But how do I make use of gedit to edit system configuration files and so on? I used nano for this, but if we have noroot on all of the editors, we will be left with no way to edit our own system.
    3. when I run “firejail –list” I get things like “6865:trisquel:firejail –list ” and “4343:trisquel:/usr/bin/firejail /usr/bin/nautilus -n” and “6847:trisquel:/usr/bin/firejail /usr/bin/vlc –started-from-file”. What are these? Shouldn’t it be “1234:trisquel:firejail nautilus” and “5678:trisquel:firejail vlc” ??

    Thanks!

      > 6847:trisquel:/usr/bin/firejail /usr/bin/vlc –started-from-file

      How did you started this? It looks like you clicked on a desktop manager menu or you clicked the video file in the file manager – this is where “–started-from-file” comes from. It should always be there, unless you start vlc manually with “firejail vlc”.

      The desktop manager menus should mostly work, there are here and there some applications that need to be fixed. Most of the problems are with the file manager. On some older distributions (like Ubuntu 16.04 or Debian stable) the mime-type packages are messed up. They have been fixed in later versions (like Ubuntu 17.04, Debian testsing).

      There are lots of problems with the file manager in Gnome 3. We hope Gnome will fix them soon.

      Running gedit as root: “sudo /usr/bin/gedit”. You can also remove the symbolic link for gedit and run it unsandboxed – usually text editors are not a security concern. To remove the link run: “sudo rm /usr/local/bin/gedit”.

        Why do we have profiles for text editors if they are not a concern?
        Anyway, if I remove the symlink it will be added again when I update firejail and run firecfg right?

        As for the vlc issue, I don’t recall, and right now I have cleaned all symlinks. I am thinking about adding one by one (is that possible? Maybe I should just make a backup copy of all profiles and delete all those I don’t want to have symlinks created?)

        As for my main question: shouldn’t double clicking a mp4 file open vlc INSIDE the firejail sandbox?

    Hey,

    Some bug reports:
    The simple-scan profile makes my printer/scanner disappear. I can still print using it but Scanner application says there is no scanner connected to the computer. I have not the time right now to investigate what is happening but want to let you guys know about it. If more info is necessary ask please, in reply to this comment.
    Also, nautilus inside firejail cannot access my 1Terabyte usb disk. It says that I have not the right permissions. Did chown and got to access the disk but can’t see the files inside. Removing nautilus from /usr/local/bin solved the issue.

    Also, would like to request profiles for:
    mplayer2
    smplayer

    I am using a copied profile from gnome-mplayer but you guys can probably do a better job than me.

    Thanks.

      Try “firejail –noprofile simple-scan”. If this works, it means on or more lines in /etc/firejail/simple-scan.profile are creating the problem. Comment out the lines in that file one by one (add a #). Let me know if you find it.

      I’ll look into mplayer2 and smplayer.

        Hi netblue30,
        same “disappearing scanner”-problem here, and I think I found the offending line in /etc/firejail/simple-scan.profile. It’s “protocol unix,inet,inet6”.
        Since you are not able to reproduce this, I would guess that it’s something printer/manufacturer specific.

        Hey, thanks again.
        Still couldn’t look at the simple-scan issue.
        When I copy a profile into /etc/firejail/appname.profile, and run sudo firecfg, shouldn’t that new appname also be automatically firejailed when run from terminal? the curl profile is working ok, still gotta try it a little bit more, but I have to run “firejail curl” instead of it being automatically called. I suppose firecfg relies in it’s own list and not the profiles in the firejail folder??

        If you are not on the latest version (0.9.48), try to install it. There are all sort of fixes there.

        To start programs automatically, you also need to add a symbolic link to /usr/bin/firejail in /usr/local/bin directory. In the man page, look at “DESKTOP INTEGRATION” section.

        I still cannot reproduce your simple-scan problem. The best thing to do would be to put an issue on github (https://github.com/netblue30/firejail) maybe somebody comes up with an idea.

    hello.
    i have been using firejail for a few months, without any problems. unfortunately, i just updated systemd on arch linux, and firejail can no longer resolve DNS, either with browser of from a simple firejail shell session.
    i just tried with the DNS argument `firejail –dns` but still no luck.
    running firefox or curl without a firejail container can definitely resolve DNS.
    is this an OK place to report bugs ? or is github better ?

        actually, a recent systemd update broke DNS for many.

        a simple:
        `mv /etc/nsswitch.conf.pacnew /etc/nsswitch.conf`

        fixed the issue. so definitely a distro specific problem.

        thanks for firejail!
