I investigated and reproduced this with: $ snap install hello-world $ mkdir /home/fakeuser/snap $ chown -R 1090:1088 /home/fakeuser (use uid:gid that are not used on the system). $ snap remove hello-world
The problem is only affecting groovy and it appears to be fixed with https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/9041/ (which landed on Sep 28th but hasn't been released in stable yet; the fix is included in snapd from edge). ** Changed in: snapd Status: Confirmed => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1901578 Title: Cannot remove snap package ubuntu 20.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1901578/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
