I am trying to install snapd per these instructions:
The EPEL packages require a system that is based on RHEL7. With that in mind, only Amazon Linux 2 fits the bill. This is how /etc/os-release
looks like in our images:
google:amazon-linux-2-64 .../mini/hello# cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Amazon Linux"
VERSION="2"
ID="amzn"
ID_LIKE="centos rhel fedora"
VERSION_ID="2"
PRETTY_NAME="Amazon Linux 2"
ANSI_COLOR="0;33"
CPE_NAME="cpe:2.3:o:amazon:amazon_linux:2"
HOME_URL="https://amazonlinux.com/"
I too have Amazon Linux and need to install snapd and can’t get past this. If anyone finds a solution, post a reply. Thanks!
Please try using the repository I linked to in this topic:

Thank you but cant get snapd to install on Amazon Linux AMI. Error: Package: snap-confine-2.48.2-1.amzn2.1.x86_64 (snapd-amzn2)
Requires: libudev.so.1()(64bit)
Is this on Amazon Linux 2? Can you attach the output of cat /etc/os-release
?
Looking into the original question image, it seems to be Amazon Linux 1.
And i have the same problem, as i am unable to renew my letsencrypt certificates without snapd. Although i was able to install EPEL from yum. Below are the details
NAME=“Amazon Linux AMI”
VERSION=“2018.03”
ID=“amzn”
ID_LIKE=“rhel fedora”
VERSION_ID=“2018.03”
PRETTY_NAME=“Amazon Linux AMI 2018.03”
ANSI_COLOR=“0;33”
CPE_NAME=“cpe:/o:amazon:linux:2018.03:ga”
HOME_URL=“http://aws.amazon.com/amazon-linux-ami/”
Amazon Linux 1 is unsupported, and is missing pieces that snapd relies on. I suggest you try the let’s encrypt mailing lists/IRC channels or forums to ask questions about supporting your system.
Ooh, Thank you for quick response.
