Title:
  PDF export not generated under Ubuntu 20.04

Status in Mahara:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  From https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=8653 and
  https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=8652

   enabled PDF export plugin in my site, System didn't report any
  errors.

  When I export my pages , in "Export your portfolio" page, system
  stopped at "Please wait while your export is being generated..." and
  "Copying extra files" for long long time, but system do not report any
  errros also.

  In server "dataroot" directory, "HTML" directory have some generated
  files ,but "PDF" directory is empty.

  If I disabled PDF export plugin in my site, then exporting pages can
  be finished normally.

  In my Ubuntu Server 20.04, I installed chromium-browser, It was
  installed as a "snap" package, How to config it fot Mahara system?

  This could be related to the new structure where snap wants to save
  files. First try: install with the '--classic' flag, but that's not a
  long-term solution.
