It was brought to my attention that when signed in as an LDAP-authenticated user the default Downloads directory for snapped Firefox and Chromium browser is not /home/user/Downloads but e.g. /home/user/snap/firefox/common/Downloads. |
It was brought to my attention that when signed in as an LDAP-authenticated user the default Downloads directory for snapped Firefox and Chromium browser is not /home/user/Downloads but e.g. /home/user/snap/firefox/common/Downloads.
The issue is observed on 22.04 at least with snapd 2.58+22.04.1. I'll post an update after checking on other releases. |

When user is set to a local one (outside of LDAP/AD) the default Download path is /home/user/Downloads.

Test procedure:
1. Log in to Gnome as a Active Directory user.
2. Launch browser (firefox or chrome) - make sure there's no existing config (we are interested in the default Downloads location).
3. Download a file via the browser.
4. Check where it was downloaded.
Expected result:
The files are downloaded to ~/Downloads (or a translated equivalent).
Actual result:
The files are downloaded to:
~/snap/firefox/common/Downloads
~/snap/chromium/current/Downloads
For local users the behavior is as expected (all files are downloaded to ~/Downloads).
This is very inconvenient for enterprise environments where manual setting modification is needed on every host.
This has been tested on 22.04 with the following versions:
- firefox (116.0.3 Mozilla Firefox Snap for Ubuntu canonical-002 - 1.0)
- chromium (Version 116.0.5845.110 (Official Build) snap (64-bit))
- snapd 2.58+22.04.1
