Reason for breakage: snapd removed non-root support in: commit 8f981ca652e9bffe587254c5c55177965eb3fcfd Author: John R. Lenton <jlen...@gmail.com> Date: Wed Aug 3 21:35:23 2016 +0100
daemon: stop using group membership as succedaneous of running things with sudo This broke gnome-software, which is running as non-root... The long term solution is to create a new D-Bus service that allows non- root users to get a Macaroon from snapd and uses Polkit to authorize. This is being added to snapd-glib. As a short term solution, we really need to revert this change in Xenial... ** Also affects: snapd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: gnome-software (Ubuntu Yakkety) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Changed in: gnome-software (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: Confirmed => Triaged ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu Xenial) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu Yakkety) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu Xenial) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu Yakkety) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of नेपाली भाषा समायोजकहरुको समूह, which is subscribed to Xenial.
