Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/3706

There is this spack package manager that is kinda like flatpak and appimage where the package manager is portable, and works on other Linux distros.

My question is would firejail work with spack applications?

I have no idea how spack works, I am sorry :( All I know is the user can pull stuff from a repo and it compiles the packages, it is kinda similar to the portage package manager except that it is more portable and afaik you don't need root access.

It should work, there is nothing in firejail to prevent a package manager from running.

Try to bring it in manually from git and compile it. Then try "firejail firefox" and take a look in the browser to "/home/username" directory, you should have there only Downloads and some config files.
