As a work-around for this bug, I suggests you make sure that `ubuntu-
desktop-installer.service` does not start before `snapd.seeded.service`.
Unfortunately a user service cannot really wait for a system service.
And `snap wait system seed.loaded` which could have been a good
ExeStartPre command requires authentication through polkit. So the
easiest would be to add `After=snapd.seeded.service` in a gdm.service
drop in.

Upon booting iso, no snaps are installed and desktop installer service

Bug description:
Upon booting an ISO (I believe this may only happen with slow internet
connections) there is (sometimes) NO snaps installed. Snapd is
functional but snap info list lists no snaps. The desktop installer
services crashes, and thus the installer never boots up. After *quite*
some time (approx 5m) on this live iso, snaps were installed, and the
installer icon then functional. I've attached the journalctl to help
debugging.
