Nautilus Bookmarks Tor Browser infinite add
Originally created by @op_mb on #17201 (Redmine)
when using dotfiles to persist bookmarks in Nautilus side
bar,
(/live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/dotfiles/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks)
after every restart, new line [file:///home/amnesia/Tor%20Browser]
gets added,
so with infinite boots -> infinite Tor Browser shortcuts in the
Nautilus’ side bar
it is possible that there is a missing conditional statement that checks if in the /live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/dotfiles/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks the [file:///home/amnesia/Tor%20Browser] already exists.
this can be remedied by setting the owner permission of the [file:///home/amnesia/Tor%20Browser] to read only.
as a consequence, if the permission is set to read only, the shortcuts on the doesktop break - their pictures dont get loaded, only metadata gets loaded, which may suggest that there is a hard exit when Tails cant write to /live/persistence/TailsData_unlocked/dotfiles/.config/gtk-3.0/bookmarks
i’ve attached the pictures
cheers!
To whoever will work on this
The corresponding code lives in /usr/local/lib/add-GNOME-bookmarks
.
To test the fix: systemctl --user restart tails-add-GNOME-bookmarks.service
