Snap packaging is broken

[provokateurin]

When running the executable of a snap the console shows:

/snap/ginko/x1/ginko: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.29' not found (required by /snap/ginko/x1/ginko)

I'll try to find the version of hover where snap packaging wasn't broken and the fix the current version.

Or we could wait for go-flutter-desktop/hover#73 to be merged.

Somehow snap is broken even more by now, because rn I can't even package it anymore.
I try to package @marchellodev's app (https://github.com/marchellodev/sharik; which should work) and I get the same error as when using the current template:
Source path "/tmp/hover-build-sharik-linux-snap079298038" does not exist
I'm on Arch which may be why it doesn't work. I'll investigate using docker to test if it works there.

Ok using docker works. Weird.

Messing for some time with snaps makes me mad again. Either @marchellodev you try to fix it in hover (if you want) or I need to dual boot Ubuntu to fix it, but working on it from Arch just doesn't work

[marchellodev]

@jld3103 you can just use vmware/virtual box/qemu :)

Btw, make sure that you have the latest snapcraft installed, sometimes this can be an issue.

I'd love to improve hover's snap support, but I don't have much time these days. If you give up, just don't remove snap support, I'll try to make some changes and submit a pr later

[marchellodev]

Oh, and docker doesn't always work, I used to have some linker issues. So I had to build snap on my system.

[marchellodev]

Anyway, if you have some specific issues - let me know, maybe I had them before (I had a lot of problems trying to come up with the perfect snapcraft.yaml), and maybe I can help you

In addition, you can always write on the snapcraft's forum.

I think the issue were mainly incompatibilities between Ubuntu and Arch. Nothing to specific, but just a lot of version mismatches at every corner. Also every time I work with snap I like it less...

[provokateurin]

@marchellodev does snap still work for you? Otherwise I'd want to remove it until some wants to maintain it properly.
