Snap app crashes if upgraded in the background

from signal-desktop.

popey commented on August 30, 2024

We have an experimental feature, designed to mitigate this issue. It's blogged about at https://ubuntu.com/blog/experimental-feature-snap-refresh-awareness-and-update-inhibition
This issue is indeed a snap-related one, and we're working to get that feature landed by default as soon as we can. For now, this is the workaround.

snap set core experimental.refresh-app-awareness=true

This will prevent the app updating while it's running.

Forgive my naivety, but could this be fixed with a "snap layout"?

no, snap layouts are completely orthogonal to this issue
