Installing snapd and snap-store, the snap-store wanted me to update snap so I did, it then asked me to restart, I didn’t realize it meant restart my computer, annoyingly it restarted my whole running system and not just the snap-store application, when my system booted back up it rebooted ?twice? before getting back to login screen, my system time had changed to +1 what it should be.
Who maintains snap-store, it should be more clear its rebooting the entire system, and why does a snap update have to reboot the entire system?
And why did my system time get pushed forward an hour?
the snap-store snap should surely not cause any reboots, not even on request …
snapd does suggest rebooting though, since it adds several things (search paths etc) to your session startup but there is no UI component to it and it also would not do this unasked on its own … what OS are you on, can you post the full output of snap version ?
Here is the information, the snap store requested a restart after something like “the snapd core update”; it was the first update suggested after the first time I launched snap-store.
It rebooted, and the rebooted again before getting to login screen, and then my system time was +1 hour ahead of what it was before the reboots.
After installing ntp the time was auto-corrected back an hour as I was unaware of how systemd-time worked.
Well, i suspect the time(zone) change might be unrelated here, the unexpected reboot is clearly a bug though and you should file it on launchpad (you can find directions to the respective bug tracker a snap uses via: snap info snap-store)
