hi,
today, after i installed recent updates, including the updates from snapshot 20210920, vscode did not work any more.
after some searching, i found https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/133804
so i worked around the problem with||||||||the "--no-sandbox" commandline parameter.
then i noticed also other applications do not work any more.
i noticed, that all non-working applications are chromium/electron based applications like slack, hamsket, vivaldi, discord, msteams.
all of them don't work any more, unless you use the "--no-sandbox" commandline parameter.
after some more searching i found: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glibc/+bug/1944468
the reason for all this seems to be the new glibc, which was coming with snapshot 20210920
is this already known?
in the above ubuntu issue a new/patched glibc is mentioned.
The patch is for Electron to behave correct, not for glibc. Some people hacked around it by disablling the new clone3() syscall, but this is no solution. It's like buying a Porsche and then put a very slow engine into it.
does such fix also exist for opensuse?
If you speak about openSUSE packages like docker: yes, we fixed the applications we were aware of. But we cannot fix e.g. third party binaries and openQA does not cover all applications. Thorsten
