Looking at /root/snap/unity8-session/common/.cache/upstart/scope- registry.log, there are lots of messages along the following lines:
scoperegistry: ignoring scope "clickscope": cannot create metadata: unity::SyscallException: RegistryObject::create_desktop_file: unable to create desktop file: "/root/snap/unity8-session/common/.local/share/applications/clickscope.desktop" (errno = 2) The problem is that the applications subdirectory does not exist, but scopes expect that directory to be pre-installed. In turn, failure to create the desktop file causes the registry to not add metadata for local scopes. After creating the directory, the errors go away, and unity8-dash.log looks clean. I'm seeing results from 7digital and amazon on a search (albeit without thumbnails) once the applications directory exists, which indicates that the scopes infrastructure is working. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity-api in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1645798 Title: No snaps appear in scope on Core 16 Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in Unity8 Session Snap: Confirmed Status in unity-api package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: No snaps appear in scope on Core 16 whereas they do appear in unity8 snap on classic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1645798/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
