Hi,
The ctrl+c behavior (bug #1596077 mentioned by Kyle) on snap install was
fixed in December and released shortly afterwards, at least in Ubuntu.
The current version of snapd (2.20.1) in ubuntu should work - hitting
ctrl+c now aborts the installation as expected:
$ sudo snap install mongo33
mongo33 2.84 MB / 93.59 MB
[====>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------]
3.04% 4.73 MB/s 19serror: cannot perform the following tasks:
- Download snap "mongo33" (2) from channel "stable" (net/http: request
canceled)
Cheers,
Pawel

I encountered an issue when I did a ctrl + c as snap was installing my
helloworld snap. Essentially, I am unable to resume an install, or do any other
snap installs. Is there any known way to resolve this should I encounter it
again in future?
This occured on Debian. I had to do an uninstall + reinstall of snapd. But even
that failed. It only succeeded after I removed /var/lib/snap after uninstall,
before the reinstallation step.
