This raises a big issue.  I want to avoid snap packages.  Is there a way to
ensure that this will be the case and force the use of deb packages?

Is there a list of packages that are being switched to snap?  After all
these years, the Firefox snap package STILL doesn't work if you have a
non-standard HOME directory -- and I do.  I'm not interested in finding out
what else won't work.

Yes, I expect that.  That has been SOP for a long time.


Thanks to everyone who responded so far.  Keep those cards and letters
coming in!  :-)
