Same issue here on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS(Unity).
Could not login. What I did is stop "lightdm", after which 
"var-lib-snapd-lib-gl.mount", after that I purged "nvidia*", removed "snapd" 
and removed the folder "/var/lib/snapd", in the hopes that it won't start this 
problematic service any more.
I restarted and now it could login but compiz does not load(windows without 
frames and --replace does not work).
If I try to install nvidia, it does not allow me because it tries to remove 
"libcuda1-364" which fails to be removed because it can't find 
"var-lib-snapd-lib-gl.mount", tried forcing and everything, don't know what to 
do with it any more...
The biggest issue is that this is my main and only machine in the house + it is 
a full encryption system, I can't just start installing Ubuntu all over again, 
I have a lot of data...

I said to myself I won't ever install Ubuntu as the only system since I
always get hit with these issue within' 1-2 months of normal usage(every
Ubuntu version I had breaks at some point after an update - at work we
have 12.04.5 and one day it broke a few hundred of dev machines with an
update to the Linux kernel, luckily you can switch to an older version
in grub). I thought 16.04 LTS would be stable at this point and
risked...
