What happens when you type: $ snap info core Also, what happens when you type: $ snap refresh > 2. Is snap the front end to snapd ? Do they get updated together? Yes. > 3. Can I update snapd and not update ubuntu-core and core. On an Ubuntu Core system snapd is integral to the device, on a classic system snapd is an add-on package so in the former case the system and snapd are updated together. > 4. Should ubuntu-core and core be updated together also?

We renamed this to better reflect that other cores could be available that are not Ubuntu based. Do you have both of these installed on your system? In fact, can you give us a full output of: $ snap list > I know there are a lot of questions here but it is just a little bit > unclear to me at the moment.
