I have never used this new snapshot feature, but I have the feeling what
is missing here is "just" the support in the command line parsing (as
that is a bit convoluted… entirely by my fault).

Does it work (show mawk?) with:
apt -o APT::Snapshot=2024-06-30T00:05:09Z list --upgradable
?

(-S/--snapshot are just cmdline sugar for this option)


I don't think it should "work" without the option set – and I have to
note that your config includes the option (with another timestamp).

P.S.: Congrats! This is the first open bug number 1000 against apt. 😉
