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.

@landaro do you have a log perhaps? Are you sure this isn't your AUR helper? There's no dependency on netcat (either variant), so I'm not sure how you got there. It builds and installs just fine if nc isn't available.

landaro commented on 2019-10-17 08:50 (UTC)

I believe there might be a missing dependency on netcat with this package. My initial installation attempt failed with a command not found: nc. Manually installing one of the providers for nc fixed the problem, though.

Hi,

Thanks for fixing! Yes, GO111MODULES was set to on. I've disabled it (or rather, put it to the default behaviour of auto).

Thank you for being responsive :-)

@dharrigan that's a bit surprising, snapd does not use go.mod. Is it possible that you have GO111MODULE=on in your environment?

Edit: yeah, I was able to reproduce this problem by setting GO111MODULE=on in my environment. I've pushed an update.

@bboozzoo remmina was the application that had no fonts, but also snap store was missing fonts also.

bboozzoo commented on 2019-10-01 14:24 (UTC)

@homelessuser which snap had the fonts rendered incorrectly in your case?

bboozzoo commented on 2019-10-01 12:06 (UTC)

@homelessuser thanks for letting me know. Indeed, I can see the problem here too: https://i.imgur.com/5sLAJTs.png

homelessuser commented on 2019-10-01 12:00 (UTC)

Fonts missing and replaced with empty boxes in 2.14.r1137. It looks exactly like this https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/snapped-app-not-loading-fonts-on-fedora/12484 Host fonts not being read correctly?

bboozzoo commented on 2019-07-12 14:41 (UTC)

@Gonzalo2683 I think there's something broken in your system.

$ pkg-config --path libseccomp
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/libseccomp.pc

Maybe try reinstalling libseccomp or using a clean chroot to build the package like described here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot
