If you want to speak to the snapd guys and ask them to make libsnapd- glib1 a dependency of snapd, by all means do so.
There are no circumstances where it makes sense to have libsnapd-glib1 as a dependency of pulseaudio. Pulseaudio and Snap are two seperate entities, and only those with snapd installed actually need snapd library support. I don't want it. I don't need it, and I certainly don't want the dependencies it drags in. And I don't want to have to make admin changes to accomodate the whims and fanciful notions of others. And that, I think, is all I wish to say on the matter. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1856054 Title: pulseaudio now depends on libsnapd-glib1 which recommends snapd Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: The latest update for pulseaudio (1:11.1-1ubuntu7.5) in bionic now has libsnapd-glib1 as a dependency. This is complete and utter nonsense. I do not want cascading dependencies that have no business being installed on the systems I manage. Please rectify this at once.
