Apache Superset permissions for Public role, manually or through cli
  1. You can add these permissions through superset ui.
  2. Or you can import them from the json file using superset cli: superset fab import-roles -p superset-public-permissions.json
  3. Tested with iframes in versions 1.3 and 1.5

libpcre3 error during libgtk-4-dev installation on ubuntu 22.04
# libgtk4 needed libpcre3 2:8.39-13build5, but on my ubuntu was installed 2:8.43-1+ubuntu19.10.1+deb.sury.org+1
# so, in my case the issue was fixed by downgrading libpcre3 to a needed version
# here is an algorithm
# Downgrade libpcre3
sudo apt-get install libpcre3=2:8.39-13build5
# Install libgtk-4-dev
sudo apt-get install libgtk-4-dev

Using chromedriver binary in Selenium on MacOS
  1. Download the driver from https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads
  2. Unzip it somewhere and you get a binary named chromedriver
  3. Make this file trusted by MacOS: xattr -d com.apple.quarantine chromedrive
  4. You can test the result with the next python snippet: 
    from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Chrome('chromedriver')

driver.get('http://google.com')```
