snap-confine: Only attempt to copy/mount NVIDIA libs when NVIDIA is used #3975
Conversation
This hasn't _yet_ presented an issue in full confinement environments, as the only fully confined environment available is Ubuntu, and the snaps being tested are also built using the Ubuntu libraries. This change will now only make the NVIDIA libraries available if the nvidia kernel module is loaded and present, to ensure that confined snaps running on open source drivers will not run into any linking issues by exposing the host GL library into the runtime.

This is great, thank you. One question inline, basicly I'm wondering if the detection method is stable over time.

We are already using it and it is present in all the driver versions out there.

Ya I just moved the existing define in the file to be available where I need it, but the name is stable for loaded kernel module.
