Just to clarify the situation: here https://github.com/ubuntu/snapcraft- desktop-helpers/issues/92#issuecomment-385644966 one of the desktop helper maintainers says that to solve the problem snaps must be rebuilt using the latest desktop helper. This because snapcraft-desktop-helpers is a build tool and so the fix can't be propagated to existing snaps.
The correct way to address the issue is to contact the specific snap maintainer. ** Bug watch added: github.com/ubuntu/snapcraft-desktop-helpers/issues #92 https://github.com/ubuntu/snapcraft-desktop-helpers/issues/92 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1746710 Title: Snap creates redundant duplicate directories in home folder To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapcraft/+bug/1746710/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
