Problem goes away when using a non-snap version of Firefox
Hi, thanks for the information. I don't think there's anything I can do about this, since I'm not actively saving anything in /tmp, it seems the jupyter notebook
command uses the /tmp directory and there doesn't seem to be an argument to change this behaviour.
I'll add this to the readme however, thanks for letting me know!
snap bug
I'm running the latest ubuntu, and that ships with a snap version of firefox. When trying to launch notebook from a .py file. Everything works up until firefox tries to grab the html from /tmp. It can't see it. If you could add some option to save to a different dir than /tmp that would help. Also maybe describe this bug in the readme for other ubuntu users.
I did some digging
Looks like snap intentionally does not allow for it's packages to see the /tmp folder and thus it can't collect the html it needs. Here is a link -> https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/accessing-tmp-from-snaps/22384 The link mentions how apparently firefox can't see /tmp but can see /Downloads.
Verification of problem
Sure enough if I copy over that html to downloads I can open it from terminal with firefox and it appears as expected.
