[BUG] fedora-kde dbus unix socket shadowed by late /tmp mount

[Markarian421]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

System Settings won't start from menu.
Starting from shell (/usr/bin/systemsettings) yields:

[abc@e0f1d2994008 ~]$ systemsettings
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-abc'
QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-abc'
kf.dbusaddons: DBus session bus not found. To circumvent this problem try the following command (with bash):
    export $(dbus-launch)

Problem seems to be that docker-in-docker (dind) initialization does a very late mount -t tmpfs none /tmp which shadows the initial /tmp containing the dbus unix socket. (s6 svc-docker depends on svc-de and even waits 5s before calling /usr/local/bin/dockerd-entrypoint.sh. This seems due to avoid some interference with pulseaudio startup.

Have verified that e.g. introducing a dependency from svc-de to a new s6 init-tmp-mount script that does

if ! mountpoint -q /tmp; then
        mount -t tmpfs none /tmp
fi

fixes the problem.

Expected Behavior

The System Settings control panel should open.

Steps To Reproduce

This seems reproducible directly after all fresh starts of the container.

Environment

- OS: Fedora release 38 (Thirty Eight)
- How docker service was installed: Fedora 38 standard server install (using the podman emulation of docker nowadays)

CPU architecture

x86-64

Docker creation

docker container run --detach --shm-size 2G --name test --privileged -e PUID=1000 -e PGID=1000 -p 3000:3000 -p 3001:3001 --restart unless-stopped linuxserver/webtop:fedora-kde-8441b5fc-ls109

Nice find, I will get a solution in the bases for audio in priv mode

This is fixed in the latest build.

I just stumbled across this problem and can confirm that this problem also exists for debian-kde.

[hgw77]

I helped myself with a workaround by modifying /etc/s6-overlay/s6-rc.d/svc-de/run

1. check that tmp exist
2. run /usr/bin/dbus-launch before startwm.sh to export the DBUS env variables systemwide

#!/usr/bin/with-contenv bash

if ! mountpoint -q /tmp; then
  mount -t tmpfs none /tmp
fi

cd $HOME
exec s6-setuidgid abc \
  /usr/bin/dbus-launch \
  /bin/bash /defaults/startwm.sh

I am not sure this is a good and general solution but it worked for debian-kde 👍
