Thanks for the update @zyga. I started to test snap under suse 15.0 but I ran into this issue https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1575053 and it's much worse if my home folders are localized (Snap pollutes my home dir with 6-7 empty english folder like Downloads,Documents...)

Thank you for reporting the problem. The issue is being investigated by other members of the snappy team.

Hi! Could you please add SLE 12 backports to the build?


Zygmunt Krynicki's avatar

Hey. I'm not sure. If you would be willing to help in testing we could give it a try. Could you please open a forum topic on the snappy forum at forum.snapcraft.io and reference me there (@zyga). I will do my best to help.

openSUSE Leap 42.2 and Leap 42.3 are no longer supported. Please move to Leap 15 or Leap 15.1 for ongoing updates.

Hi @zyga. Since SuSe Leap 15.2 enters beta, could you please add it to the build? Thanks


Zygmunt Krynicki's avatar

Totally! Thank you for the heads-up.

I have switched recently to openSUSE Tumbleweed, and found that some applications are only available via snaps. It would be nice to have the GUI frontends (Discover, GNOME Software) included in this repo, so we can stay updated from the same package manager.

can you add a 15.5 repo building for Leap 15.5.


Maciej Borzecki's avatar

Thanks for reminding me of 15.5, I'm a Tumbleweed user and totally forgot about the latest stable release :) The repository should be up as soon a the builds finish.

Dear snap maintainers, @zyga @maciek_borzecki

To complete the snap experience for KDE Plasma users, it would be fantastic if you could include KDE Discover's (KDE's software store) snap-backend (aka "discover-backend-snap") in the snappy repository? As it stands now, only GNOME users are benefiting.

I raised a bug/request with OpenSUSE, since they do officially provide KDE Discover with e.g. flatpak-backends, but they don't want to build the snap-backend themselves, because they don't "officially" support snap...

What is needed to make this work with a SELinux installlation? Tumbleweed is transitioning to use SELinux as default....
