Title:
snap remove "core" on classic not allowed
To manage notifications about this bug go to:
Commenting on this old post I found via search because Uli.Heller's
suggestion worked for me to remove the snap core18 from Ubuntu 19.04.
The core18 snap was mounted thusly:
/dev/loop1355808 55808 0 100% /snap/core18/1066
First I disabled it:
snap disable core18
Then I
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:Ubuntu 17.04
Release:17.04
Codename: zesty
To be able to remove the 'core' snap, i had to follow @azrobbo
instructions at #16:
$ sudo service snapd restart
$ df
$ sudo umount /snap/core/
$ sudo snap remove core
So my doubt is, why do i
This issue still exists in 17.04, with a few differences:
* The snap is called "core" and not "ubuntu-core"
* sudo snap remove core - returns the same message as above: snap "core" is not
removable
* However, trying to umount "core" fails if snapd.service is running
My fix was to:
(1) use 'df'
I think I do have a similar issue:
$ snap list
Name VersionRev Developer Notes
core 16-2.26.9 2381 canonical -
$ sudo snap remove core
error: cannot remove "core": snap "core" is not removable
$ df
...
/dev/loop1 8243282432 0 100% /snap/core/2381
@florian: Thanks for your bugreport. And sorry to hear that snap is
giving you trouble. You can get rid of snap by doing: "apt purge snapd".
This will remove everything including the core snap.
Having said that I'm keen to hear more about the USB mounting issue you
have? What kind of error do you
@Florin, USB mounting broken? Could you file a separate bug about that?
(it certainly works here! :-) )

Title:
snap remove "core" on classic
Still no luck:
# snap remove core
error: cannot remove "core": snap "core" is not removable
Since I enabled snap, mounting USB volumes, either automatically or
manually, is broken. And I can't even get rid of snap. Effectively snap
has broken my system. This is really, really bad.
Speaking in
** Summary changed:
- snap remove failed ubuntu-core snap package
