Public bug reported:
The proprietary nvidia drivers are not accessible from snap packages,
they need to have a bind mount made to a location where snaps can use
them. Please see the conversation below for more details:
10:24 < mvo> mhall119, mattiasw: I looked at the nvidia issue and it
works here now, there are two issue: a) we do not auto-bind-mount the
right nvidia directory, this needs to get fixed in our nvidia drive pkg,
as a workaround we can sudo mount -o bind /usr/lib/nvidia-361
/var/lib/snapd/lib/gl/ b) the bin/qt5-launch script overrides our
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, trivial fix is to just ensure that before the actual
launch of krita "$SNAP_LIBRARY_PATH:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" is set, this
ensures that the right gl library (the nvidia one) wins over mesa. if
there is a git repo or anything like this I can provide a patch for
bin/qt5-launch
10:24 < mvo> mhall119: do you think you could chase our nvidia packagers
to include a systemd bind mount unit from "sudo mount -o bind
/usr/lib/nvidia-361 /var/lib/snapd/lib/gl/" ?
10:31 < mhall119> mvo: I assume the nvidia package fix needs to be SRU'd
into 16.04's archives, it's not something that gets fixed in ubuntu-core
images
10:32 < mvo> mhall119: yeah, we need to get this SRUed
10:32 < mvo> mhall119: not something we can fix in the image
