[Error] Error creating $HOME/.local/share/containers/storage/volumes on symlinked /home systems #1533

Closed Zeglius closed 3 months ago

Zeglius commented 3 months ago

Describe the bug Seems $HOME/.local/share/containers/storage/volumes fails to be created due to /home being a symlink (which is common practice in Fedora Atomic systems, like silverblue)

Given users were able to solve this by following this workaround from reddit, I suspect there is an issue in the logic when handling /home being a symlink of /var/home

To Reproduce Fresh bazzite install (from reports of users), using topgrade update (which calls distrobox update) or boxbuddy creating container.

Expected behavior Directory should be created regardless of /home being a symlink.

Closing this, seems upstream issue
