!!!
!!! /home
base directory content is not readable !!!
This is due to current behavior and restrictions of snaps by Canonical.
Check common doc in FAQ if you want to setup data in /home
directory.
See my common doc about FAQ.
You need to access the snap in shell mode and edit the file with Vim:
sudo snap run --shell qbittorrent-tak.qbittorrent
vi $SNAP_USER_DATA/.config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf
One help sheet of Vim commands available here.
The snap works on Core24.
When qBittorrent requires a version of QT and/or LibTorrent not published in Ubuntu repositories, a minimal build of these packages are made.
Ubuntu packages requires to build the mime-type database.
For qBT v4, the build was made with QT6 option and QT6 Ubuntu stable packages (instead of default QT5).
See my common doc about building a snap.
