Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/286

IT WAS: "build a new user home in a temporary filesystem, and copy the files and directories in the list in."
What now?
Why did you delete it? WTF

@Anoncheg1 I am facing the same problem where the private.keep or private-home shows up as an invalid command. I was wondering if you found a way to remedy the situation?

I tried --private=list-of-files-and-directories, but the changes are persistant. For now I'm using a bash script which copies the files and deletes them promptly after the session is terminated.

Build a small script and copy the necessary directories in a new directory, than user --private=new_directory to start the sandbox. Firefox example:

#/bin/bash
rm -fr ~/tmpfirefox
mkdir ~/tmpfirefox
cp -a ~/.mozilla ~/tmpfirefox/.
firejail --private=~/tmpfirefox firefox
