Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/3689

Bug and expected behavior

  • Describe the bug.
  • What did you expect to happen?
    Firejail would read profiles when launched then says DBus user socket not found (dbus-daemon is running) and no proxies specified

No profile and disabling firejail

  • What changed calling firejail --noprofile /path/to/program in a terminal?
  • What changed calling the program by path (check which <program> or firejail --list while the sandbox is running)?
    Both launches fine

Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Launch Iceweasel
Fails to launch

Environment

  • Linux distribution and version (ie output of lsb_release -a, screenfetch or cat /etc/os-release)
  • Firejail version (output of firejail --version) exclusive or used git commit (git rev-parse HEAD)
    Parabola OpenRC with linux-libre-lts kernel, latest updates
    Firejail 0.9.64

Checklist

  • [] The upstream profile (and redirect profile if exists) have no changes fixing it.
  • [] The program has a profile. (If not, request one in https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/1139)
  • [] Programs needed for interaction are listed in the profile.
  • [] A short search for duplicates was performed.
  • [N/A] If it is a AppImage, --profile=PROFILENAME is used to set the right profile.

As a workaround dbus-user none might work.

What's the output of echo $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS?

@RefinedAnarchy does the solution from #3769 work for you too?
