** Changed in: snapd-glib (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => High

** Also affects: snapd-glib (Ubuntu Xenial)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Changed in: snapd-glib (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Fix Released

** No longer affects: snapd-glib (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: snapd-glib (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: New => Triaged

** Changed in: snapd-glib (Ubuntu Xenial)
   Importance: Undecided => High

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ Older versions of Ubuntu are running older versions of snapd-glib. There have since been bug fixes and support for newer API that was added to snapd since release.
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Delete existing Snap credentials by deleting keys com.ubuntu.UbuntuOne.GnomeSoftware in Seahorse.
+ 2. Start GNOME Software
+ 3. Install a snap (e.g. moon-buggy)
+ 
+ Expected result:
+ User is prompted for Ubuntu credentials and is able to install snap.
+ 
+ Observed result:
+ Works as expected (i.e. only looking for regressions).
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ There is a risk of breaking existing use cases. This is reduced by the regression tests in the package and the newer versions of snapd-glib working in newer releases.
+ 
  The xenial backport of the fix for 1781428 malfunctioned due to the use
  of snapd-glib behaviour introduced after the version included in xenial:
  namely auto-connection (and reconnection) to the snapd socket that was
  introduced in snapd-glib 1.24.
  
  With the policy module loaded, Pulse Audio will contact snapd to check
  the interfaces plugged by a client in order to decide whether to provide
  access to the microphone.  As the Pulse Audio daemon is long lived, it
  is not uncommon for the socket connection to be disconnected (either due
  to a timeout, or because snapd is upgraded while the user is logged in).
  So simply adding a snapd_client_connect() call at module initialisation
  time is not sufficient.
  
  The specific snapd-glib calls that could be affected are:
  
-  * snapd_client_list_one_async
-  * snapd_client_get_interfaces_async
+  * snapd_client_list_one_async
+  * snapd_client_get_interfaces_async
