So I decided to start again from scratch because for some weird reason my snap-core systemd unit was not matching the installed snap-core.snap.
So purging the config and making use /var/lib/snapd was empty I resinstalled snapd. But get this warning.
Warning from /etc/apparmor.d/usr.lib.snapd.snap-confine.real (/etc/apparmor.d/usr.lib.snapd.snap-confine.real line 396): Unconfined exec qualifier (ux) allows some dangerous environment variables to be passed to the unconfined process; 'man 5 apparmor.d' for details.
This is the stanza in apparmor.d
# Allow running snaps unconfined when snap-confine is built without apparmor # (It is still worth confining snap-confine even if the kernel's implementation of # apparmor is not sufficient for all of snapds features). /usr/lib/snapd/snap-exec uxr,
Why is this happening. Is it is something unique to my set up. (/var/lib/snapd being mounted as a separate xfs volume) or is there some error in the snapd install template?
Should I be concerned about this or is it just some meaningless warning and has not real impact in the functionality of snapd?
