Auto-connection for gnome-3-28-1804 content interface

store
1

The Ubuntu Desktop team has created the gnome-3-28-1804 snap which provides supported libraries needed for GNOME 3.28 apps on 18.04 via a content interface. This snap is the supported means for building GNOME snaps on an 18.04 base, just like gnome-3-26-1604 was for 16.04 bases. We would like a snap declaration to auto-connect this interface.

default-provider: gnome-3-28-1804

Thanks for your consideration

Is there an 18.04 base snap that this works with?

Yes, it’s not in the stable channel yet but will be real soon. @mvo is working on getting that promoted to stable.

core18 is now available in the stable channel.

I’ve verified this snap meets all the criteria previously outlined and is the same as the gnome-3-26-1604 snap, except for 3.28 and 18.04. In that light, I’m granting this now (in the interest of the upcoming 18.04 release).

Reviewers, please speak up if you feel strongly otherwise and I can revoke the snap declaration.

This is now live.

This crash is an abort because it can’t find the required gsettings schemas in the snap. What are you trying to do with snap-store? Are you trying to build your own branch of it?

no, i just disconnect snap store from gnome platform snap cause it was not launching. then i reconnected it and got the error. I think i was not connecting it correctly.

snap-store is connected to gnome-3-28-1804 but still having issues with it. not launching and ended with same error.
