I think there is a misunderstanding here. Snaps for core22 can run in any series, be it 18.04, 20.04, 22.04 etc., otherwise it would really mean that for each series XX we would have to use the corresponding coreXX. They can only run in any series because they are not run directly as a binary that sees the host libraries, but rather uses snap confinment. So if your base is 20.04, a snap based on core22 works nonetheless, because it's seeing the libraries provided by core22 instead of your host system. That is _exactly_ what is sidestepped once you run it with the /snap/chromium/current/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chrome instead of the normal /snap/bin/chromium, namely the snap runs unconfined an thus uses the system libraries, which may be (and in the present case is) different than what it was linked it during its build, justifying the errors you see. > Do you have any sense of "how long" the stable/core20 channel will be > available? > > I am grateful for the stable/core20 build as of now, but need to plan to > either migrate to Ubuntu 22.04 (or later) or off Ubuntu altogether By default it's 30 days after launch, I'm happy to keep it alive for longer though if it will help, just note it is frozen, it will not be maintained, so new CVEs in Chromium or any of its dependent libraries won't be addressed and so on. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to cups in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2026200 Title: Snap update broke launching and printing on 20.04 Ubuntu. Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in cups package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Two deployed ubuntu images, 20.04 and 22.04. Both images are fully updated. Issue appears to only impact 20.04. chrome snap version 2529 Launching chrome from menu shortcut that is managed by the snap works and it using this location /snap/bin/chromium Launching chrome from desktop shortcut that I manage on 20.04 fails - /snap/chromium/current/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chrome Updating the desktop shortcut with this location on 20.04 works - /snap/bin/chromium Try and print from the browser, print dialog in chrome does not list any system printers, only shows PDF. Doing the same on 22.04 image, I get a list of printers. CLI I run cups.lstat -v which works on 22.04, does not work on 20.04. 20.04 I get an error "cannot stat /var/lib/snapd/seccomp/bpf/snap.cups.lpstat.bin: No such file or directory" I've run these tests on multiple 20.04 and 22.04 machines and I'm getting 100% failure rate on 20.04.
