I just spun up a clean noble VM, followed the steps you listed precisely, and was not able to reproduce the problem (hello-world happily installed).
If there are no snaps installed, installing a snap like hello-world will first install the snapd snap, which restarts snapd to run with the new version, before installing the snap you asked for. So it seems the problem is snapd failing to restart after the install. Could you please please post your journalctl logs for snapd as well, and we may be able to spot what is wrong? journalctl -xeu snapd I'm not sure if the error you're seeing regarding libX11.so.6 with the snap command is the cause, or somehow a symptom to snapd failing to start. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2098503 Title: snap broken even after purging and reinstalling To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/2098503/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
