[Bug 1638721] [NEW] Hardcoded paths need to work inside Snappy

 

Public bug reported:

As reported by mterry in his $SNAP exec patch
<https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/indicator-datetime/snap-
root/+merge/308171>:

> The com.ubuntu.touch.AccountsService.Sound.xml file
> has hardcoded paths to a couple sound files.
>
> ALARM_DEFAULT_SOUND and CALENDAR_DEFAULT_SOUND
> are replaced in many files. Some data (gschema)
> and some code. The code instances can easily be
> changed to prefix $SNAP. The data files would
> need a rethink.

There is also an umbrella ticket for hardcoded paths in the u8 snap:
