firejail doesn't work automatically with gnome-books

[Tus1688]

OS: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
I am sorry if you found this question funny. I have been using firejail for a month, and I have never found any issue with app from apt repository. Today, I install gnome-books then do sudo firecfg to reconfigure, then relog.

I open gnome-books, I did firejail --list and gnome-books didn't show up. but when I do firejail gnome-books it's work like usual. Before I open an issue here, I have read firejail wiki. Unfortunately, I don't understand what is symlink is. Thanks in advance for your kindly help

If the symlink is properly configured, you should get something like

$ ls -l "$(command -v gnome-books)"
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root … /usr/local/bin/gnome-books -> /usr/bin/firejail

then it's likely duplicated of #2624.

EDIT: workaround like in bd97615

Thank you for your reply. I tried it, it show same as your previous reply.

Then try to create /etc/firejail/Books.profile:

# Firejail profile for gnome-books
# This file is overwritten after every install/update


# Temporary fix for https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/2624
# Redirect
include gnome-books.profile

and add Books to firecfg.config (find it with shopt -s globstar && ls /usr/lib*/**/firecfg.config).

After running sudo firecfg again, it hopefully works (and we can add it).
