Public bug reported: Install of chromium from the Ubuntu software store fails with "Unable to perform the following tasks:" but nothing detailing what those failed tasks might be. Trying to install from the command line with "sudo snap install chromium" also fails, thus:
error: cannot perform the following tasks: - Run configure hook of "chromium" snap if present (run hook "configure": <exceeded maximum runtime of 5m0s>) After briefly appearing in the /snap directory, the /snap/chromium directory disappears when the installation fails.
