Friendly Jira Robot created ERT-771:
---------------------------------------
Summary: The webkit dbus IPC should use a private bus [EBZ#540060]
Key: ERT-771
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ERT-771
Project: Eclipse Release Train
Issue Type: Task
Components: Platform
Reporter: Friendly Jira Robot
AIUI, the webkit dbus IPC currently tries to own the dbus namespace
"org.eclipse.swt.<PID>" on the session bus.
This can't work when an SWT-based application is sandboxed with Flatpak because your
PID is only guaranteed to be unique within the sandbox.
Because there are usually not many processes running inside the sandbox, it's actually
highly likely (but not guaranteed) that a sandboxed process will be given a PID of 2.
This makes it entirely within the realm of possibility that two SWT-based applications
will try to own the same namespace.
Please consider using a private bus for this feature.
