| debodhi | https://i.imgur.com/O7JaFFJ.png Is the snap store only available for ubuntu? | 05:35 |
|---|---|---|
| ogra_ | debodhi, it surely is ... | 08:05 |
| ogra_ | (given it is the default Sw to install/remove packages in ubuntu) | 08:05 |

| debodhi | ogra_: ok, the question was it *only* available for ubuntu, as I'm unable to install it, as can be seen in the screenshot, it keeps saying to try other channels, but none work, etc. | 16:10 |
| debodhi | it feels like you answered the question without the word only in it..... although perhaps I'm just hoping.... | 16:11 |
| ogra_ | debodhi, it should work on any system that supports snaps | 16:23 |
| ogra_ | not sure why you do not get the full channel list though, is your snapd outdated (do you have the latest snapd snap on your system) ? | 16:24 |
| ogra_ | (checking the metadata of my installed snap-store, it requires at least snapd 2.41) | 16:25 |
| debodhi | 2.60.4 | 16:25 |
| ogra_ | that should be fine then ... | 16:26 |
| ogra_ | does "snap info snap-store" list 8 channels for it ? | 16:26 |
| ogra_ | (4x latest in different variations, 4x preview) | 16:26 |
| debodhi | no, as shown on screenshot, it say "error: no info for snap-store" | 16:27 |
| debodhi | errr no snap found for snap store | 16:27 |
| debodhi | error: no snap found for "snap-store" | 16:28 |
| ogra_ | right ... weird ... | 16:28 |
| ogra_ | there isnt really any technical reason i could imagine that might prevent you from seeing all channels ... snaps are 100% distro independent so as long as snapd is supported you should have access to all snaps in the store | 16:30 |
| ogra_ | (and to all channels of these snaps) | 16:31 |
| ogra_ | do you have any "transparent" proxy that could intercept https calls to the store ? | 16:31 |
| debodhi | I'm able to find and install snaps from command line... I tried a few https://paste.debian.net/1306121/ | 16:32 |
| debodhi | I did "snap find games" and picked 3 to try, the rest of that stuff was dependencies for them | 16:34 |
| debodhi | (so no, I don't think I have any proxy) | 16:36 |
| ogra_ | hmm, you dont have the snapd snap ... try "snap install snapd" (might need a reboot on non-ubuntu systems to make it start from the snap version) | 16:45 |
| debodhi | it appeared to restart itself after install, but I'm rebooting anyway, thanks | 16:48 |
| ogra_ | 👍 | 16:49 |
| debodhi | It didn't change the behavior in regards to snap-store tho. | 16:53 |
| ogra_ | bah | 16:53 |
| ogra_ | but "snap version" does tell you about 2.61.x now i hope ? | 16:54 |
| debodhi | No, still says 2.60.4 | 16:55 |
| ogra_ | oh | 16:55 |
| debodhi | but thats what it says in the list anyway | 16:55 |
| ogra_ | it shouldnt ... | 16:56 |
| ogra_ | $ snap info snapd | grep latest/stable | 16:56 |
| ogra_ | tracking: latest/stable | 16:56 |
| ogra_ | latest/stable: 2.61.1 2024-01-04 (20671) 42MB - | 16:56 |
| debodhi | https://paste.debian.net/1306123/ | 16:56 |
| debodhi | https://paste.debian.net/1306124/ | 16:57 |
| * ogra_ is baffled | 16:57 | |
| ogra_ | not sure but you dont really seem to access the snapcraft.io store properly ... see https://snapcraft.io/snapd ... | 16:58 |
| ogra_ | (top right) | 16:58 |
| ogra_ | not sure how you could even remotely get a 2.60 version when you run snap install snapd ... there is only 2.61.x available | 16:59 |
| debodhi | i386 arch | 17:00 |
| ogra_ | OH ! | 17:00 |
| ogra_ | your kernel says -686 ... | 17:00 |
| ogra_ | right, i386 support was dropped in 2018 ... so all you get will be really old stuff then | 17:00 |
| ogra_ | that indeed solves the mystery 🙂 | 17:01 |
| debodhi | https://i.imgur.com/15XdENB.png on the site you sent shows 2023 | 17:02 |
| debodhi | Oh you mean for snap-store | 17:03 |
| debodhi | it doesn't list i386 at all under arch, so that explains something | 17:03 |
| ogra_ | right, snapd will still be built for i386 ... but no newer snaps | 17:04 |
| ogra_ | so all you can get is anything that has been packaged against 18.04 ("base: core18" in "snap info --verbose <snapname>") ... but snap-store is definitely packaged against core22 | 17:05 |
| debodhi | ah ok. yeah trying to install that as a test, it gives an error message that makes sense. snap-store didn't give such an error message. | 17:07 |
| debodhi | error: snap "core22" is not available on stable for this architecture (i386) but exists on other | 17:07 |
| debodhi | architectures (amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x). | 17:07 |
