Public bug reported: I have installed Atom editor as a snap through the software center. I am able to launch the program using the "launch" button in gnome software.
However the Atom launcher doesnt show up in gnome shell application launcher and I am unable to start it from the terminal using the "atom" command. It seems like the application doesnt register in the right places. ~ $ atom 08:23:28 No command 'atom' found, did you mean: Command 'atrm' from package 'at' (main) Command 'atom4' from package 'atom4' (universe) Command 'atoms' from package 'horae' (multiverse) Command 'atobm' from package 'x11-apps' (main) Command 'atop' from package 'atop' (universe) atom: command not found ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 17.10 Package: snapd 2.27.6+17.10 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.12.0-13.14-generic 4.12.10 Uname: Linux 4.12.0-13-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.7-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Thu Sep 21 08:20:20 2017 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-09-15 (370 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-MATE 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) SourcePackage: snapd UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to artful on 2017-09-02 (18 days ago) ** Affects: snapd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug artful wayland-session ** Description changed: I have installed Atom editor as a snap through the software center.
