I created an issue at Github about this https://github.com/hbriese/fancon/issues/5 but since the most recent commit is July 2017 and the snap was last updated March 2017, I’m not sure it will be addressed. I’m also not sure if the issue is with the program itself or the snap packaging.
At present this is not a big issue for me. I just installed thinkfan and that seems to be doing a better job than whatever was doing it before.
It seems that the good folk at snapcraft would want to know about this and perhaps solicit a fix or remove the package.
Thanks!
