[Bug 1595066] Re: Assumes end users know correct package name

[Brian Murray]

To clarify because I was confused a bit, there is a package in the
archive named snap, but it does not provide the snap command
(/usr/bin/snap) - snapd does.

Title:
  Assumes end users know correct package name

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  'ubuntu-bug snap' is reporting bugs against the snap package, which is
  exactly what the docs say it should do, and not what users who do not
  have the snap package installed want it to do. They probably want it
  to report a bug against the snapd package, which owns /usr/bin/snap.

  Some extra heuristics to target the bug correctly could be useful,
  taking into account if the package is installed or if a binary with
  the provided name is found in $PATH.
