does not work on flatpack / snap installations

[jerger]

Summary

while new ubuntu head toward firefox as snap (unfortunately) gopass-jsonapi does not work on flatpack / snap installations

Steps To Reproduce

1. sudo dpkg -i gopass-jsonapi_1.11.1_linux_amd64.deb
2. gopass-jsonapi configure
3. choose firefox
4. try out gopass-bridge on firefox -> shows no connection

Environment

vanilla xubuntu22.04

Additional context

I assume, storing native messaging host file at .mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/com.justwatch.gopass.json is not the correct location for snap / flatpack?

Flatpack and snap seem like a terrible idea to me.

At least in their current form.

IIUC using native extensions with snap is not yet possible at all.

[jerger]

Yes I totally agree, but while using ubuntu there is no really good alternative ...

[dominikschulz]

IIUC this does affect other extensions as well and so far they don't seem to have a good solution (but personally I'm not following closely as one can e.g. just get Chrome as a deb).

Any ideas are very welcome.

flatpak side, I don't believe it's currently possible. Here's a relevant PR in the works that could change that
