Have error: [1824784:0410/165658.198572:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(163)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /tmp/.mount_webcoraOIdHj/usr/lib/webcord/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755. xargs: /tmp/.mount_webcoraOIdHj/usr/lib/webcord/webcord: terminated by signal 5

Appear on Ubuntu 24.04.2 gnome.

Short story,

  1. Used webcord appimage for some time.
  2. installed gear lever from flatpack
  3. updated webcord using gear lever from github
  4. in result, app can't be started from gear lever app and from ubuntu apps list

It's a known issue tho for now

I've conducted an in-depth analysis of the AppImage sandbox restrictions in Ubuntu 24.04 and documented comprehensive findings across two complementary blog posts:

  1. Technical Analysis: A detailed exploration of the underlying mechanisms, security implications, and system-level changes affecting AppImage execution in Ubuntu 24.04's enhanced sandbox environment.

  2. Practical Solutions: A user-focused guide with step-by-step workarounds and best practices for managing AppImage applications while maintaining system security.

For a complete understanding of this issue, including technical details, implementation specifics, and practical solutions, you can take a look at:

Both articles include thoroughly researched information, verified solutions, and relevant technical documentation to help users and developers navigate these changes effectively.
