The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Security: Process Sandboxing' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

I guess this might bite us in the future on more distros, so worth taking a look at.

It did, in fact, bite us on other distros, including with “normal” filesystem layouts. Merging this into bug 1848615.
