Multipass snap edge channel has not been updated since March 19 about multipass HOT 13 CLOSED

Oh, it looks like something is wrong with how our CI is uploading to the edge channel- it is wayyyyy out of date:

latest/edge:      1.14.0-dev.1600+g2701b66b        2024-03-19 (12063)  67MB

March 19, 2024!!!
I will have to investigate our CI on why this hasn't been updated in so long.

Thank you all and @townsend2010 ,I have tested and I can confirm all is working as before.I can set up a bridged network using the refreshed Multipass edge.

Hi @holta,

Yes, this issue was fixed recently via #3449. It seems the version of the snap on this machine needs to be refreshed. Please ensure the latest Multipass package from edge is installed.

That looks to be the correct version, but I would like confirmation of multipass version as well please.

Ok, after much investigation and working with the Launchpad Team (thanks @sn3rd!), I have found the problem (at least the first and hopefully only layer of the onion). I will be working on a fix. Thanks!

Hey @holta,

I agree and it is still on my TODO to figure out a way that we can do that which has visibility in discovering these packages. We do currently build these, but it's not (easily) discoverable and will require some automation for them to be discoverable.

As discussed Jan 5 — might this be doable in 2024?

I will try my best.

Well, what I mean is that currently the artifacts are published publicly to an S3 bucket. Without some manual intervention from the team to post the URLs somewhere, one would have to "guess" the URL to get the artifacts. Manually posting a URL every time there is a new build for the Windows and macOS platforms is very inefficient at best (and just plain wouldn't be done like now at worst) and I would rather automate that somehow. But yes, there is definitely value in doing this.

For confirmation, could you please give the output of:
$ multipass version
and
$ snap info multipass

Thanks!

Is grabbing from the screenshot above enough?

(If not, I'll ask @EMG70 to confirm!)

Personal Opinion: Overall Multipass QA can greatly benefit if Multipass's CI posts "edge channel" builds for Windows and macOS too! 😄

not (easily) discoverable and will require some automation for them to be discoverable.

Partially discoverable downloadable images might be perfectly sufficient initially?

(Perhaps advertised as "at your own risk" builds for developers only, helping Multipass to tighten QA feedback loops across more platforms?)

Thanks @townsend2010 for probing what's possible! 💯

With Multipass 1.14.0-dev.1729+g8cbcc013 just released in recent minutes (thanks to PR #3481!) can you re-test this ticket's original multipass set local.driver=lxd failures that have been so aggravating in recent weeks? 🙏
