In progress: snapd 2.27.5

Testing on F25 now, I’ll follow up with F26 (I have i386 and x86_64 variants of F26 but only x86_64 variant of F25)

The 2.27.4 release is now in the candidate channel. Please help testing by snap refresh --candidate core and let us know if everything works as expected.

Test results: https://docs.google.com/document/d/15R26w7cwjdYegUDofAwI28LUtdfLNyp0um0WXWCzS60/edit

Please, let me know if you find any regression.

What’s changed? I don’t see any edits than version in post header. Or it’s just a bugfixes release?

The only one change is:

  • snap-seccomp: add secondary arch for unrestricted snaps as well (PR: 3603)

This is the changelog for more info: https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/blob/2.27.4/packaging/ubuntu-16.04/changelog

HOAX: It’s 2.27.4 in the meantime and xdg-open is still not working.

works fine for me in candidate, beta and edge here (note that 2.27* has not made it to stable yet)

snap info core                                                                                        
tracking:    candidate

do you have the snapd-xdg-open deb installed on the host ?

Guten Morgen, Juergen! :wink: @ogra :: Many thanks! How could I clean up the false report?

it isnt actually a false report, there should have been a dependency/recommends in snapd for this from the start or snapd-xdg-open should have been included in the snapd package … but instead of including it, there is a re-write in progress atm (so the report is correct, the fix is a bit complex though).

The testing from the CE project discovered a regression in the nmcli binary. A new snapd 2.27.5 with the following changes got uploaded:

  • interfaces: fix network-manager plug regression
  • hooks: do not error when hook handler is not registered
  • interfaces/alsa,pulseaudio: allow read on udev data for sound
  • interfaces/optical-drive: read access to udev data for /dev/scd*
  • interfaces/browser-support: read on /proc/vmstat and misc udev data

Cool, Browser support. Finally i can have HW Acceleration on Chromium Snap :smiley:

Thank you! I will follow up with openSUSE and Arch package as usual. I may also do a Debian commit and ask @mwhudson to review unless he has already taken that task.

@mvo please for next vresion, could you add the PR 3680 which fixes the failover tests. tx

I really hope we won’t need another 2.27 release, but if we do I will add 3680. It is already in master so we should be fine for 2.28
