If you package sudo within your snap snapcraft will strip the necessary suid bit from it so it wont work anymore. Only way to use sudo is to use the one from the core snap. > Is this something that's expected to work, or is this out of scope (it does > work > if you run the snap itself with sudo, although then it's a bit annoying as > you're hit with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1595558). We should fix this so that a sudo <snap-binary> works rather than putting sudo in a snap or use it from there. You could also check in your binary if its started as root and if not abort. regards, Simon -- Snapcraft mailing list Snapcraft@lists.snapcraft.io Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/snapcraft
