I used to be able to run flatpak flawlessly with your commits (not sure whether there was an update to them since, I usually just use current trunk with some cherry-picked commits, like yours) but for quite some time now I only get |

@Mounium Sorry about that, I switched from the vendored bubblewrap to the one in Nix and did not check if it works. (I though bubblewrap is used as a library, which would be linked correctly, but it uses the |

I have been using it in the last couple of days, most flatpak packages work just fine, awesome work 👍 One strange package, pulseeffects doesn't seem to work, or at least not in a stable manner (wwmm/easyeffects#156), as I can get it to work from within the gnome software center, but not from command line, probably due to some environment variable set by the wrapper script on gnome-software. |

I tested the portals with https://github.com/matthiasclasen/portal-test (follow the changes in pull requests) and now they work. The last remaining thing is adding an automated test. I created a prototype but the Test prototype--- a/nixos/release.nix

When a package contains a directory in one of the systemd directories (like flatpak does), it is symlinked into the *-units derivation. Then later, the derivation will try to create the directory, which will fail: mkdir: cannot create directory '/nix/store/…-user-units/dbus.service.d': File exists builder for '/nix/store/…-user-units.drv' failed with exit code 1 Closes: NixOS#33233

There was a problem hiding this comment.
If you want the test to run on i686, this should be 2047 due to a memory limitation in qemu-system-i386

It'd be nice if users could use Flatpak too. As it is now, any operations having to do with Flatpak have to be done as root making Flatpak support a non-start for me.

Allows running sandboxed applications.
Closes: #32807
How to test
Enable the service by adding
services.flatpak.enable = true;to yourconfiguration.nixThings done
Installing and running applications works,
we still need to check whether all the portals and interactions work.Portals work as well.build-use-sandboxinnix.confon non-NixOS)nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"./result/bin/)
