Hey guys, I've followed the instructions to install snapd on fedora 23:
http://snapcraft.io/docs/core/install
The installation almost worked (I just had to replace a dash with a
hyphen. It's probably a good idea to remove it: it is between the
words "enable" and "now") and I've got a snapd installed on my system.
However, it would't even start because (as journalctl --unit=snapd told me):
Jul 23 18:45:24 jordan snapd[10645]: error: fatal: directory
"/var/lib/snapd" must be present
I had to go ahead and manually
sudo mkdir /var/lib/snapd
which at least allowed me to start the deamon.
I can three ways to fix it:
1) add my workaround to the official instructions
2) fix snapd to automatically create /var/lib/snapd or
3) fix zyga/ubuntucore on corp to include this directory (maybe put
some empty file there if one can't create empty directories with corp,
I don't know).
Let me know,
Adam
