I had a perfectly working version of snap and for some reason wanted to remove and reinstall. So followed the guide over at manjaro wiki and ran the following commands
pamac remove snapd
sudo rm -r /var/lib/snapd
Now, when I wanted to reinstall it, again followed the commands from the wiki linked above and ran -
pamac install snapd libpamac-snap-plugin
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
pamac install discover-snap
after which restarted the laptop to be sure and ended up in the above state. I tried following through the existing topics from other users that seem to have the same issue and it did not seem to work for me. Help?
Edit - The journalctl output is truncated for the last 20 lines or so as I’ve been trying to get this working for a while
