Description

After updating to Cozy-Drive-3.16.0.AppImage on my Debian sid system, the app refuses to start.

As user:

$ cd /home/mithat/opt/CozyDrive/
$ ./Cozy-Drive-3.16.0.AppImage 
[5194:1027/124812.829468:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(157)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /tmp/.mount_Cozy-<looks-like-a-random-string>/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.
Trace/breakpoint trap

There is no /tmp/.mount_Cozy-<looks-like-a-random-string> directory on the system.

Research direction

Reproduce the failure with the reported ./Cozy-Drive-3.16.0.AppImage command on Debian sid and start from the setuid_sandbox_host error. Investigate why the extracted chrome-sandbox is not configured as required; done means the AppImage starts successfully without the reported abort.
