1) Anbox will not function without kernel modules built for the Fedora kernel. There's an associated bug for required kernel enablement (bug 1455411). 2) /snap is against FHS, and has been previously rejected by FESCo. See https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1614 for details.

Having read the thread, I must say that I agree with this and that it appears to be part of a long pattern of obnoxious behavior on the part of Canonical. That said, I'm sad, because I need to use Android apps on my workstation, and don't want to abandon Fedora! Maybe we could have a temporary, interim compromise?

Having read #1455411, it is an entirely worthwhile thread to read for anyone interested in this issue. :) |
Description of problem: Unabled to install snap packages using the classic confinement feature using snapd-2.30-1, even as the Github pull request and Launchpad bug threads both claim that it solves the problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.30-1 How reproducible: Completely. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install Fedora-LXDE-Live-x86_64-27-1.6.iso 2. sudo dnf install snapd. 3. rpm -q snapd; rpm -q snap-confine 4. sudo snap install --classic anbox-installer && anbox-installer Actual results: error: cannot install "anbox-installer": classic confinement requires snaps under /snap or symlink from /snap to /var/lib/snapd/snap Expected results: Per https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1736939 and https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/4432, success in installing Anbox. Additional info: I'm frustrated.
