LibreWolf Flatpak permissions reset after screen lock and login

if i use flat seal to grant printer permissions and lock the screen it resets at next login until rebooting.

even if i submit it as a bug they’ll just it’s by design and that its feature so that if i get compromised that hackers can’t run my printer out of toner.

at best flatpak would blame librewolf and librewolf would blame flatpak

You seem to have encountered a feature. I’m not sure what the question is here

no question only statement. printing not allowed from Librewolf flatpak. It’s the best thing since sliced bread. It’s sure to piss of the family the when college forms and bills are due. I give it five stars the last attempt to print ended with the police breaking up a domestic dispute due to the high efficiency resentment feature. :stuck_out_tongue:

If anyone knows a way to force printing access to stay on i’m all ears but, oddly flatseal shows it as on despite access not being there after screen lock. almost like something to do with the user session or something.

Does anyone know if there is a deb version in the buntu repos? is it as easy uninstalling and sudo apt-get install librewolf?

I am using Kubuntu 24.04, which uses Ubuntu 24.04 default repos. LibreWolf ), which is the package you are looking for) isn’t there, so your only choice is flatpack or snap packages, build from source, or try to get LibreWolf from an earlier repo. It would be as easy as Sudo apt install LibreWolf if the LibreWolf package was there.

indeed it is not there, no printing for me. feels like the days when linux just didn’t have wifi drivers for most wifi cards. at least i can save as pdf then print from pdf.
