Score 1 for snappy! Will point people in this direction from Launchpad, thanks for testing

Cage transform has never worked for me, and I am soooo amazed. Really looking forward to this working in 2.9/2.10 one day!
Still no support for 32bit…
I assume you mean i386 binaries support.
This won’t happen until the build service includes i386 building capability, which it currently does not.
But why did you need it? I seen several snaps that I can install right now, e.g. Peek.
I need support in the build service for i386 binaries to build i386 binaries because without it I cannot build i386 binaries.

@dies anyone can manually build an x86 snap locally, or use launchpad to build an x86 (and numerous other architectures)…
By default build.snapcraft.io builds x86_64 (ok @ikey ? 
) and armhf binaries, but not x86 binaries/packages. As an easy to use tool to get started building snaps, this is appropriate. More advanced users, who require more diverse architectures can use launchpad directly, or build on their own hardware.
Within the team we have discussed this on numerous occasions. It was a conscious decision to omit x86 due to perceived lack of demand and limited available resources (a builder doing an x86 install is taking resources from a package needing an x86_64 build). I think it’s valuable for us to have the discussion regularly to consider whether build.snapcraft.io should revise the default architectures.

We do plan on supporting i386 on https://build.snapcraft.io (#819) once developers can specify the set of architectures their software can build on.

I tried several times with the same version of gimp from the stable channel(2.8.22 (25)) on my laptop. It works fine even though some warnings and error messages popup at startup.

But looks like you’re not the first person to hit this problem. It’s bit weird.
The udev_enumerate_scan issue should be fixed in the 2.28.4 upload to beta yesterday. (ie, sudo snap refresh core --beta).

The udev_enumerate_scan failed error should be fixed in the beta channel. A snap refresh --beta core should make things work again.
Gimp.snap does not recognize system language, it is only for english, not spanish or others.

Could you update it please?

Yes I am well aware that 2.10.0 is out. It is not simply a case of “updat[ing] it”.

Gimp stopped working for me today. Same problem that this:
What happens if you use snap revert gimp or snap install gimp --revision=32?actually this doesn’t help because it wasn’t refreshed recently, what could have broken this?! There’s been no recent Wrong again, it was a bug in the GIMP snap.core refresh either?! Actually I was wrong, a the core update from 2.32.4 (4452) to 2.32.5 (4486) broke GIMP.
