I have a daily scheduled build of the CMake snap (master branch) via travis CI and it uses the --use-lxd option. Today, it started failing with an error that looks to be related to snapcraft rather than anything on the CMake or travis side of things. Note that I haven’t changed anything about the way the snap builds in quite some time and the error appears to occur before anything specific to CMake itself. It looks to be failing in setting up the basic LXD base environment and core dependencies. Here’s a small extract of the error:
$ sudo snapcraft --use-lxd
The LXD provider is offered as a technology preview for early adopters.
The command line interface, container names or lifecycle handling may change in upcoming releases.

Sorry, an error occurred in Snapcraft:

You can see the full build log here (I think it’s publicly visible):

Any clues as to why this is now failing?
BTW the next CMake release cycle just started, so I’ll be needing to put out release candidate builds every week or so for the next month or two, so I kinda need to have this working.
