“start-mullvad-browser cannot be run using a symlink on this operating system”
How to reproduce this error on Kicksecure ?
- Install mullvad-browser using the official repository
- Install the last version of firejail (0.9.74) deb package
- Run : sudo firecfg
- Run : firejail mullvad-browser
I wonder if this error is coming from a hardening conf from Kicksecure or maybe the error is coming from firejail itself ? If the error is coming from firejail itself i’m sorry i will report this to them.
