Description Cristian Morales Vega 2019-06-03 12:20:40 UTC

I have been using a clean Fedora 30 install, with the Visual Studio Code snap package, without problems for a while.
But with today's snap update the whole system is broken. Lots of services fail to start with errors like

Jun 03 13:10:22 DESKTOP-CS3GGJG systemd[3391]: systemd-hostnamed.service: Failed to set up mount namespacing: Permission denied
Jun 03 13:10:22 DESKTOP-CS3GGJG systemd[3391]: systemd-hostnamed.service: Failed at step NAMESPACE spawning /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-hostnamed: Permission denied
Jun 03 13:10:22 DESKTOP-CS3GGJG systemd[1]: systemd-hostnamed.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=226/NAMESPACE


"sudo dnf remove snapd" solves the issue. "sudo dnf install snapd" doesn't bring back the issue by itself. But the second I install again the Visual Studio Code snap package the whole system breaks.

Same here. My DE starts lagging or freezes and every command I execute with sudo takes ages before I get an password prompt...
all happening since the last snapd update...

Maciek, you wrote this integration, can you please take a look at it?
