[05:35] https://i.imgur.com/O7JaFFJ.png Is the snap store only available for ubuntu? [08:05] debodhi, it surely is ... [08:05] (given it is the default Sw to install/remove packages in ubuntu) === pikapika is now known as militantorc [16:10] 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. [16:11] it feels like you answered the question without the word only in it..... although perhaps I'm just hoping.... [16:23] debodhi, it should work on any system that supports snaps [16:24] not sure why you do not get the full channel list though, is your snapd outdated (do you have the latest snapd snap on your system) ? [16:25] (checking the metadata of my installed snap-store, it requires at least snapd 2.41) [16:25] 2.60.4 [16:26] that should be fine then ... [16:26] does "snap info snap-store" list 8 channels for it ? [16:26] (4x latest in different variations, 4x preview) [16:27] no, as shown on screenshot, it say "error: no info for snap-store" [16:27] errr no snap found for snap store [16:28] error: no snap found for "snap-store" [16:28] right ... weird ... [16:30] 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 [16:31] (and to all channels of these snaps) [16:31] do you have any "transparent" proxy that could intercept https calls to the store ? [16:32] I'm able to find and install snaps from command line... I tried a few https://paste.debian.net/1306121/ [16:34] I did "snap find games" and picked 3 to try, the rest of that stuff was dependencies for them [16:36] (so no, I don't think I have any proxy) [16:45] 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) [16:48] it appeared to restart itself after install, but I'm rebooting anyway, thanks [16:49] 👍 [16:53] It didn't change the behavior in regards to snap-store tho. [16:53] bah [16:54] but "snap version" does tell you about 2.61.x now i hope ? [16:55] No, still says 2.60.4 [16:55] oh [16:55] but thats what it says in the list anyway [16:56] it shouldnt ... [16:56] $ snap info snapd | grep latest/stable [16:56] tracking: latest/stable [16:56] latest/stable: 2.61.1 2024-01-04 (20671) 42MB - [16:56] https://paste.debian.net/1306123/ [16:57] https://paste.debian.net/1306124/ [16:57] * ogra_ is baffled [16:58] not sure but you dont really seem to access the snapcraft.io store properly ... see https://snapcraft.io/snapd ... [16:58] (top right) [16:59] 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 [17:00] i386 arch [17:00] OH ! [17:00] your kernel says -686 ... [17:00] right, i386 support was dropped in 2018 ... so all you get will be really old stuff then [17:01] that indeed solves the mystery 🙂 [17:02] https://i.imgur.com/15XdENB.png on the site you sent shows 2023 [17:03] Oh you mean for snap-store [17:03] it doesn't list i386 at all under arch, so that explains something [17:04] right, snapd will still be built for i386 ... but no newer snaps [17:05] so all you can get is anything that has been packaged against 18.04 ("base: core18" in "snap info --verbose ") ... but snap-store is definitely packaged against core22 [17:07] 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] error: snap "core22" is not available on stable for this architecture (i386) but exists on other [17:07] architectures (amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x).
