[Bug 2098411] Re: All snaps are not visible to the end-user

 

This has been tracked down to the replacement of lightdm in the archive
with Debian's version.  It is missing the ubuntu only lightdm-session
wrapper.  I can only assume, users of lightdm are now supposed to define
the session-wrapper themselves - Debian has always had to.

We'll fix this by shipping our own wrapper file and modify our lightdm
config to use this session-wrapper via our budgie-artwork package

Title:
  All snaps are not visible to the end-user

Status in budgie-artwork package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in snapd package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In 25.04 for several weeks, no snaps such as firefox are visible in
  the menu.

  snap list displays the snap

  snap run firefox runs the snap, the snap itself is missing from the
  menu.

  checked in /var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications and all the .desktop
  files are there

  echo $PATH returns
  /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin

  This is a regression from noble/oracular where snaps are visible and
  work out of the box.

  Other observations - in the live session, snaps are also not visible.  The snap installer does not launch either - you have to double click the desktop icon to launch.  Again a regression from oracular.
