Why don't you just start onionshare from the application menu?

#2 Updated by scootergrisen 16 days ago

OnionShare in the application menu runs onionshare-gui.

The .desktop file says:

Exec=/usr/bin/onionshare-gui

If i select OnionShare in the application menu i see this with "sudo dmesg":

[ 879.075447] audit: type=1400 audit(1549231684.431:39): apparmor="DENIED" operation="file_mmap" profile="/usr/bin/onionshare-gui" name="/usr/lib/VBoxOGL.so" pid=11415 comm="onionshare-gui" requested_mask="m" denied_mask="m" fsuid=1000 ouid=0

I won't have time to look into this soon unfortunately. But putting it on my radar anyway.

#4 Updated by scootergrisen 16 days ago

If you got some ideas on what i could try to get closed to what the problem might be i could try that in the mean time.

This seems to be a bug in the AppArmor profile we ship. It seems it's been upstreamed but is not shipped in the Debian package yet (see #11929#note-15) so let's fix it on our side for now. I'll check if the problem is in an abstraction.

Reproduced.

#9 Updated by intrigeri 4 days ago

At first glance, it looks like /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/base expects all shared libraries to be called lib*.so, while this one is called VBoxOGL.so.
