Bug Description

It looks like there's an issue with the epiphany snap and apparmor under Ubuntu 18.04 (unsure if this is also in other releases)

When I start up / use Epiphany my log messages get spammed with the following messages:

I searched online for a fix but to no avail.

Is there a way to get these messages to stop, or perhaps a way to allow epiphany access to whatever it needs to access so my log messages may live in peace?

Thank you!

Grrr. Apparently this is the wrong epiphany package.

Thanks Ubuntu Snap Store for directing me to the wrong location.

Please close this bug. Thanks!

Thank you for moving this to the right place. I wasn't sure what my options were.

The link on https://snapcraft.io/epiphany needs changing as well so that the folks with the unfortunate name collision don't get blessed with irrelevant bug reports. :)

Thanks again!
