Does telegram not open under firejail or do you want to know what the errors are about?

Also are you using the tarball?

Probably trying to update or create a desktop entry because that directory is read-only; try adding read-write ${HOME}/.local/share/applications to your profile to see if it fixes.Likely it's harmless warning...

For what it's worth, I don't get any such errors when I use the telegram-desktop package from Debian with the Telegram profile here.

Edit: I stand corrected. I looked at my logs and get similar errors. I just ignore them because they don't affect Telegram's functionality.

@kortewegdevries i put that line in telegram.profile just after the line include telegram.local
Seems this The databases in [/home/test/.local/share/applications/] could not be updated. disappeared but i still get these after each run:

error: : cannot open
error: : cannot open
error: : cannot open

Although could be harmless warnings, i was wondering whats causing them.
However as @chiraag-nataraj mentioned, if they dont affect functionality then its fine. thanks
