I changed the display name configured on my account via both Launchpad.net and https://snapcraft.io/account/details. Both these places report my name as Dani Llewellyn (correct) but listings in the store via both the api/snapd/snap-store and snapcraft.io/snap-name listings still all say Daniel Llewellyn (wrong).
Also, despite configuring my email address dani at bowlhat.net the store vulnerability patch alerts are being delivered to my old account diddledan at gmail.com
Can somebody poke the necessary private parts to fix me, please?
Sorry this is such a whack-a-mole of changes. You may also need to change it in https://dashboard.snapcraft.io. Give it a try and let me know if things look OK after that.
RIght you are. OK, I’m looking and it appears the foo is not connected to the bar. Let me try to figure this out, and if it looks like it’ll take a while I can always just manually frob the database.
If they do, I might need to reindex somethingsomething for that to be reflected in snapcraft.io and API responses. If they don’t, I’ll need to keep digging Please let me know either way.
Despite the details on dnashboard.snapcraft.io now correctly stating Dani, there are numerous snaps in the store that are still showing my old name. This is despite having uploaded new revisions hoping that the details would be refreshed by that process.
I have a question, does this happen with new snaps you create and upload, or is it happening only with old ones that you registered using your previous name?
If the latter, I can just go in the database and bulk update the name, something I usually prefer not to do but given this has been a boggle for a while, I’m willing to try.
If the former, then I probably need to look elsewhere
Your main account record had not been updated, I did so manually and it should now have the correct name. I also went ahead and fixed records that had the old name in specific fields as a string, so it should all be updated and looking well now. There might be some caching in place, so please allow about an hour from this response’s time and let me know if anything still looks wrong on your side.
Hi, sorry for the trouble, I changed a few more stray instances, please have a look and let me know if any escaped (I did check the two you mentioned and they look fine now).
Also please let me know if any of them revert to the other name; there are a few synchronization points between systems and so outdated data might still exist and propagate. I’ll keep hunting them down as they appear

MakeMKV is your one-click solution to convert video that you own into free and
patents-unencumbered format that can be played everywhere. MakeMKV is a format converter,
otherwise called "transcoder". It converts the video clips from proprietary (and usually
encrypted) disc into a set of MKV files, preserving most information but not changing it in any
way. The MKV format can store multiple video/audio tracks with all meta-information and preserve
chapters. There are many players that can play MKV files nearly on all platforms, and there are
tools to convert MKV files to many formats, including DVD and Blu-ray discs.
Additionally MakeMKV can instantly stream decrypted video without intermediate conversion to wide
range of players, so you may watch Blu-ray and DVD discs with your favorite player on your
favorite OS or on your favorite device.
- Reads DVD and Blu-ray discs
- Reads Blu-ray discs protected with latest versions of AACS and BD+
- Preserves all video and audio tracks, including HD audio
- Preserves chapters information
- Preserves all meta-information (track language, audio type)
- Fast conversion - converts as fast as your drive can read data.
- No additional software is required for conversion or decryption.
- Available for Windows, Mac OS X and Linux
- Functionality to open DVD discs is free and will always stay free.
- All features (including Blu-ray decryption and processing) are free during BETA.

The Ubuntu Accomplishments system provides a simple, cohesive way to browse
different opportunities in the Ubuntu community and beyond, find out how to
participate and accomplish them, and see different accomplishments in one
place.
Ubuntu Accomplishments requires a beta feature of snapd to operate correctly. To enable this
feature, run the following before installing Ubuntu Accomplishments:
sudo snap set system experimental.user-daemons=true
The original Ubuntu Accomplishments was written by Jono Bacon and Stuart Langridge along with
numerous trophy contributors. It has now been completely rewritten by Dani Llewellyn using Dart
and Flutter. The trophies are handled by python scripts which are largely unchanged from their
state as at the original project's disbandment in 2013 when Ubuntu One File Synchronisation
service, which the system originally relied upon, went away.
Because we do not use a file synchronisation service any more you are free to choose your own, or
even work without a synchronisation service for your trophy files. The trophies are saved to your
home directory at `$HOME/snap/ubuntu-accomplishments/common/trophies`. You may add this folder to
your preferred sync service such as Nextcloud or Dropbox to keep your trophies synchronised across
your Ubuntu systems.
This is very much a beta release which might contain bugs that I've introduced during the porting
to Flutter and Dart. Also, at this early release some of the accomplishments might be broken or
irrelevant. Please report any bugs you find to
https://github.com/UbuntuAccomplishments/accomplishments-snap/issues.

If you do, the information shown by snap info comes from the snap on disk; the changes I made would not have affected that. See what I get (I don’t have it installed):

If that’s the case, we should ask someone in the snapd team about how to update the on-disk publisher information.
Other things I checked, the API seems to be giving the correct name:
That said, I also confirmed Install MakeMKV on Linux | Snap Store has not updated to the desired name, I’m checking with the team that maintains the frontend service to understand why.
An update: https://snapcraft.io/makemkv?foo shows the correct information, my friends confirmed it’s a cached value (without the query parameter), it should expire and get updated shortly (30 min or so).
Interseting. I have both snaps already installed. Makemkv refreshed yesterday so should have picked up the new publisher info if it was going to then, but seemingly didn’t. So yeah, I guess we need to understand how snapd refreshes publisher info and when…
One thing though, there’s currently a network outage in the snap store so you will be unable to do this Please do so whenever the services look OK and you have time.
Please let me know either way.
Please do so whenever the services look OK and you have time.
