Package update notes

2.36

2.36 is the first release with AppArmor enabled by default on Arch.

If you do not have AppArmor enabled at boot there should be no functional changes visible.

If you wish to use snaps with Apparmor, first make sure that Apparmor is enabled during boot, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AppArmor for details. After upgrading the package, you need to do the following steps:

  • Reload the profiles: systemctl restart apparmor.service
  • Restart snapd: systemctl restart snapd.service
  • Load profiles for snaps: systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service
2.62

Since 2.62 snapd generated additional files describing the sandbox. The snapd service needs to be restarted after the update for snaps to continue working (unless the system is rebooted after the update, in which case no additional steps are needed). To restart, run systemctl restart snapd.service

2.70

Snapd 2.70 drops setuid permissions on /usr/lib/snapd/snap-confine in favor of explicit file capabilities. After an upgrade to 2.70, the users are prompted to restart the apparmor.service otherwise attempts to run snaps will error with cannot set capabilities message.

@bittin can you try again? There was some delay in publishing tarballs in the releases page. This also overlapped with some unexpected github downtime.

The download from Github does not work

@bboozzoo Thanx, 'export LC_ALL=C' and 'pikaur -S snapd' now did the trick, snapd was installed from AUR and is now working fine!

bboozzoo commented on 2020-05-25 20:04 (UTC)

@ZombB please attach the journal output, preferrably try building it again with LC_ALL=C. Make sure that all packages from base-devel are installed and that build dependencies are installed.
