Snap and devmode #133

Open xeor opened 3 years ago

xeor commented 3 years ago

Installing the onlykey-app via snap now needs to be done with the --devmode flag for it to work. This is noted at https://docs.crp.to/linux.html#install-app, and there is a forum thread https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/use-hidraw-interface-for-onlykey-app/13736 about this.

The issues refeered to by the forum-thread looks fixed and merged into snapd.

Can the discussion on the forum-thread continue? Or is there any other blockers?

@xeor Yes the discussion can continue, last I checked there were no snaps that worked correctly with U2F devices. This should be changed by now, for our next app release I will see if we can get it working. Any help with this would be appreciated, or if you could point me to a snap that is known to work with U2F devices I could see what they did to make it work.

I'm new to snaps, but it looks like yubico is also using snaps. They have an authenticator there at least at https://snapcraft.io/yubioath-desktop. The snapcraft file is at https://github.com/Yubico/yubioath-desktop/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml. Maybe that helps? I havent tried it, but it might give some clues. The docs for the u2f-devices interface for snap is at https://snapcraft.io/docs/u2f-devices-interface

I presume this has been fixed? If so, is there a chance that the snaps app image will ever get updated?

At this point we don't have a work around to get USB devices working with Snap except using the devmode flag.
