Request to auto-connect interface "network-observe" for gitkraken

store
1

This interface is needed in order login user account on the app without this it does not work.

This error shows without this interface

Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.UnknownInterface: Object does not implement the interface
Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name com.canonical.SafeLauncher was not provided by any .service files

I can not promote the app to stable channel as it needs this interface in order to work properly.

The request for ‘network-observe’ auto-connection and the DBus errors are unrelated (though the fact that network-observe ‘fixes’ it my be due to some fallback code in gitkraken).

The real issue seems to be: Error org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name com.canonical.SafeLauncher was not provided by any .service files. AIUI, this should be provided with modern snapd.

What is the output of:

This seems to be a new enough version of snapd to have userd, which should provide com.canonical.SafeLauncher. @mvo - do you have any ideas why this snap can’t find this service?
