Public bug reported:
Environment:
Xubuntu 24.04.1 LTS x86-64
apt 2.7.14build2
snap 2.65.3+24.04
Steps to reproduce:
Open a terminal and enter these commands
df
sudo apt install chromium-browser
sudo apt purge chromium-browser
df
Actual results:
APT does not offer to remove the snap after removing the transitional package.
Expected results:
APT removes the snap and archived older versions, either on its own (because
nothing depends on it) or by displaying the appropriate snap command to run
afterward.
Additional notes:
During these steps, I observe bug #1958811, in which apt install displays the
size of only the transitional package proper, not the snap it installs.
