open bug(os): Snaps don't work #33

**Rhino Linux version & platform:** 2025.1 **What distribution component is causing issues:** Snapd **Describe the bug** As seen in this screenshot, snaps don't work properly. I tried both Chromium and Thunderbird (which are wrapper snaps), but also normal snaps, like liferea.  That error message is very common on ubuntu. It gets alleviated if just before launching the app from the terminal you run: export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS="unix:path=$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/bus" Unfortunately, even if I put this command on some scripts, or on my .profile, it still doesn't work. Only when I run it from the terminal manually it works to later load manually the snap binary. Plus, no menu item gets added on the menus anyway for these snaps anyway, so it becomes a terminal-only launching experience. On top of that, all the snap apps complain that they can't load the appmenu-gtk-module, and so they don't provide their menu on the appmenu plugin.
