The snapd side of things has been committed. Both on master: https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/commit/44611140566f6e6aa2a3b583e0b2970b69c8f53f
... and the release/2.28 branch: https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/commit/69a00bc4f4e54d7e0312c253b46b97fca834b736 Together with the already released snapd-glib 1.19, this version of snapd will let you install snaps via gnome-software without an Ubuntu One account. Instead you'll get a graphical prompt for your local password, similar to when installing debs. ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => James Henstridge (jamesh) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-software in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1581713 Title: Ubuntu Software always asks for an Ubuntu Single Sign-On account when installing or removing a snap package Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Triaged Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in snapd package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: If I try to uninstall a snap using Ubuntu Software, it asks for an Ubuntu Single Sign-On account. It seems strange since if I use a terminal and do: $ sudo snap remove john-the-ripper Everything works as expected. BTW: Ubuntu Software takes ages to find out the size of the snap package.
