[Bug 1554529] Re: Please run "snappy install ubuntu-core" as part of the build

[Scott Moser]

Oliver,
Thanks for the suggestion of ubuntu-snappy-cli.  We are definitely interested.
That said:
  apt-get install ubuntu-snappy
and
  apt-get install ubuntu-snappy-cli
on a cloud image seem to differ only by the 'ubuntu-snappy' package (which has an installed size of 42k).  Ie, it seems like ubuntu-snappy is nothing more than a convenient meta-package over ubuntu-snappy-cli.

I believe that everyone is in agreement that we do not want the ubuntu
core snap already installed by default. Thus, I've marked the 2 tasks
that would do that with 'wont fix' and added the task for the Ubuntu
Seeds to indicate that the seed is still to be done.

Please feel free to comment and change the state of those if I'm
misunderstanding something.

  Please run "snappy install ubuntu-core" as part of the build

  Confirmed
Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  One goal of 16.04 is to ship the snappy package by default so that you
  can "snappy install $stuff". For this to work the "ubuntu-core" snap
  must be installed. To make this a better user experience we should
  install it by default.
