I have installed unison-jz on a Raspberry Pi running Raspberry Pi OS and also on a Virtual Box running Mint20.
I suspect that I have may have some issues with unison, but I also see many errors which I believe are snap related. In the VB I see
mick@Mint20VBMint20:~$ unison-jz.unison -version
ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘/home/mick/snap/unison-jz/19/.config/gtk-2.0/gtkfilechooser.ini’: File exists
unison version 2.51.2 (ocaml 4.02.3)
mick@Mint20VBMint20:~$
The result look OK but why the error?
I also see this when I try to run it to do a sync, I think the messages at the end may be down to unison, but there are loads of errors before that which I suspect are snap related.
mick@Mint20VBMint20:~$ unison-jz.unison test
