Flatpak permissions for PVR wakeup script
#1
Hi,
I've been trying to get PVR wakeup to record working use the new flatpak installation method for linux.
I've run into an issue with flatpak sandboxing and was hoping someone may have solved this already.

Basically, setting a command in the PVR > power saving > wakeup command only works if the wakeup script is stored somewhere allowed by flatpak  - I've put mine under /media/data/scripts/set_wakeup.sh
This will then work (I can echo the wakeup time to a file) as long as:

1)  I don't use "sudo set_wakeup"  - (I have added the script using sudo visudo already)

2) I don't try to read /proc/driver/rtc or write to /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm 

Both of which are an issue when try to set a wakeup alarm!

The log shows the script is not running, e.g. when sudo is used
2024-03-31 19:54:34.666 T:7       error <general>: SetWakeupCommand: PVR Manager failed to execute wakeup command 'sudo /media/data1/scripts/test.sh 1711914000': Unknown error 32512 (32512)

For 2) I've found from searching that /proc /sys are blacklisted in flatpak apps and I assume for 1) I need to do something different to allow sudo access?

Any ideas greatly appreciated.
