Since there are multiple directories called "install" it's hard to see what's happening. If you try something like "../xxxx" instead, then it's easier to spot what the script is doing. When the script was running, I spotted that it said: make[2]: Entering directory '<snip>/parts/ipe/build/src/ipe' So, that's where the extra level comes from. > > One other question, is there somewhere a list of available "plugs".

There's a list here: https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/interfaces/ But the definitive list is the source code (sometimes the tests there can be helpful): https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/tree/master/interfaces/builtin The "playpen" examples can be helpful as well: https://github.com/ubuntu/snappy-playpen
