Solution

Modified from https://github.com/OrangeDrangon/android-messages-desktop/issues/448

1. Create a new apparmor profile: sudo touch /etc/apparmor.d/simplenote

2. Edit the file: sudo nano /etc/apparmor.d/simplenote

3. Insert the following content into the new file:

   
   # This profile allows everything and only exists to give the
   # application a name instead of having the label "unconfined"

abi <abi/4.0>, include <tunables/global>

profile simplenote "/opt/Simplenote/simplenote" flags=(unconfined) { userns,

Site-specific additions and overrides. See local/README for details.

include if exists <local/simplenote> }

4. Reload apparmor
`sudo systemctl reload apparmor`

Hi @sgerner, thanks for the report. Which version of the app is this occurring on, and where did you install it from? I'm not sure if this is fixed in the upcoming release candidate or not...

[sgerner]

I apologize for not being more complete and appreciate you following up!

App version is 2.21.0, AMD64. I installed it from the GitHub .deb package found here.

Thanks! Can you try the upcoming 2.22 version and let me know if the issue exists there too?

[sgerner]

Everything appears to be working with the new beta and update dependencies. Thanks!
