Description

to reproduce :

ask Tor Browser to print a web page
select ‘print to a pdf file’
save the file in ‘/home/amnesia/Tor Browser’ or ‘/home/amnesia/Persistent/Tor Browser’
Print

as a result, the file does not exist anywhere.
apparently there was no issue prior Tails 3.3.

this issue was reported to us by an anonymous user, but others have reported it on reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/tails/comments/7hnvd7/cant_print_to_pdf_in_tails_33/) and I could reproduce it myself.

I did not see any apparmor denials in my logs.

I couldn’t reproduce the issue with Tails 3.2, so it seems that only tails 3.3 is affected.

I reproduced again with tails 3.3 and sent the logs to intrigeri. actually there was some apparmor stuff in it :

AVC apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="/usr/local/lib/tor-browser/firefox" name="/home/" pid=22658 comm="pool" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0
