[21:57] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: WRT firefox, I get popups which say: "Pending update of firefox snap close app to avoid disruptions (* days left)" where * is from 14 to 1 day
[21:58] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks: Yeah. Only way around that is to close firefox, open a terminal, run "sudo snap refresh" and let that run.
[21:58] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer[m]: ok, so I close FF but if I reopen it I get the same box...
[21:58] <OvenWerks> Thats pretty poor.
[21:58] <Eickmeyer> Yeah. The desktop team is aware of the poor UX and is working towards a solution.
[21:59] <OvenWerks>  if I let it run out, there is no disruption
[21:59] <Eickmeyer> If you let it run out, snapd is supposed to force-quit and automatically refresh.
[21:59] <OvenWerks> that has not been the case so far
[22:02] <Eickmeyer> Unfortunately, then, you're not getting Firefox updates.
[22:02] <Eickmeyer> And might not be getting snapd updates because snapd, itself, is a snap.
[22:02] <OvenWerks> snap is silly...
[22:03] <Eickmeyer> Still work-in-progress, but "good enough" I guess.
[22:04] <OvenWerks> so doing a sw update with Discover doesn't hit snap hard?
[22:05] <OvenWerks> (hard enough)
[22:07] <OvenWerks> Is there a bug I can add this bug affects me too?
[22:27] <Eickmeyer> Correct. Discover doesn't do "snap refresh" unlike Ubuntu's upgrade tool, which refreshes snaps.
[22:27] <Eickmeyer> RE: bug, idk.
[22:27] <Eickmeyer> Might be able to find one.
[22:29] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks: Just checking in #snappy, ogra makes a mention to someone just this morning that the method I mentioned is the only workaround at the moment, but they're hard at work fixing the problem.
[22:29] <OvenWerks> I'll leave it then.
