2018-04-12 Thread Gustavo Niemeyer
It's way too late for that behavior right now. Many features expect snapd to be live to work. Seeding happens the first time snapd runs, which means a new system will by default start without any snaps installed. The data for command-not-found is acquired by snapd while running as well. We also can

There are two recent issues in 18.04 that we're aware about. For one of them, the most trivial fix is to reboot the system.

Hi Colin, We discussed in the sprint two weeks ago how we could prevent this from happening again. Part of the problem here is that this only shows up in a multi-stage upgrade, because it's a misbehavior of systemd that was triggered on the prerm script. So normal upgrade tests do not catch it. W
