This is often too limiting for associated programs (e. g. mpv was unable to start)

we usually don't write profiles that allow other programs to work

Better: private-etc ca-certificates,crypto-policies,nsswitch.conf,pki,resolv.conf,ssl and if e.g. exists /etc/links also links.

hmm... if this is the case then the whole novideo, noaudio, x11 discussion is pointless, right?

@rusty-snake how about doing this:
private-etc ca-certificates,crypto-policies,nsswitch.conf,pki,resolv.conf,ssl
# Uncomment the following line to allow external media players
# private-etc alsa,asound.conf,alternatives,machine-id,openal,pulse

@Fred-Barclay sound good, but
# Uncomment the following line (or put it in your links.local) …- On Fedora:
ll /bin/links:/bin/links -> /etc/alternatives/links - xlinks will need
fonts

@Fred-Barclay we need alternatives, because on some system is links a symlink to /etc/alternativs/links

For links.profile I came to this. |
* Create allow-INTERPETER.inc * allow-lua.inc * allow-perl.inc * allow-python2.inc * allow-python3.inc * Create allow-java.inc * Update profiles to use new allow-INTERPRETER.inc includes * Update profiles to use new allow-INTERPRETER.inc includes 2/x * Fix order of allow-INTERPRETER.inc includes * Update profiles to use new allow-INTERPRETER.inc includes 3/x * Fixup comment about allow-java.inc netblue30#2736 (comment) * Add Arch Linux specific paths to allow-perl.inc

@rusty-snake just need one update on private-etc. Then whichever of us gets to this first should be good to merge! 😄 EDIT: if you merge this, please choose squash and merge |

I almost always use squash, because I don't like ugly commit-messages like |

@jose1711 @rusty-snake New idea... since xlinks shares a lot with links, why not just re-direct? |
|
But now |
|
@rusty-snake I think it's ok to include globals.inc here and also in links.profile. Other redirect profiles (like for google chrome beta) do the same. |
|
@Fred-Barclay If I follow this thread correctly I do think @rusty-snake has a fair point in wanting to avoid including globals.local twice. See #2006 and #2010 for reference.
google-chrome-beta.profile does include globals.local because its redirect profile (chromium-common.profile) does not. Your proposed xlinks redirect profile needs to have |
xlinks redirects to links Add basic private-etc line and a commented, extended private-etc
|
I added some changes. @jose1711 @rusty-snake review por favor. |
Don't know how badly |
|
Merged, Thanks. |
