description |
After upgrading to eoan and accepting the deb->snap transition for chromium, the passwords saved in my browser are no longer available to the app, despite ~/snap/chromium/current/.config/chromium/Default/Login Data being present and fully-populated. If I go into settings, I see Saved Passwords: Saved passwords will appear here.
The data doesn't appear to be lost, since I have a copy in ~/snap as well as in ~/.config/chromium, but somehow they're inaccessible. |
[Impact]
After upgrading to eoan and accepting the deb->snap transition for chromium, the passwords saved in my browser are no longer available to the app, despite ~/snap/chromium/current/.config/chromium/Default/Login Data being present and fully-populated. If I go into settings, I see Saved Passwords: Saved passwords will appear here.
The data doesn't appear to be lost, since I have a copy in ~/snap as well as in ~/.config/chromium, but somehow they're inaccessible.
[Test Case]
Install chromium-browser in disco (19.04), save a few passwords for login forms.
Dist-upgrade to eoan (19.10), launch chromium, and verify that the saved passwords are still there. They can be inspected by browsing to chrome://settings/passwords.
As an additional check, the output of `snap connections chromium | grep password` should look like this:
password-manager-service chromium:password-manager-service :password-manager-service manual
I.e. the interface should be marked as manually connected, even though the user hasn't explicitly connected it.
[Regression Potential]
Low. The change removes an assumption on upgrade paths that has become incorrect. Now the password-manager-service interface will always be connected on upgrade, which I think is sensible. Users who wish to disconnect the interface (unlikely use case) will also have to remove the chromium-browser transitional package, to prevent it from reconnecting the interface. |
