An upload of gnome-software to xenial-proposed has been rejected from
the upload queue for the following reason: "The changelog is very
confusing, not really fitting the actual changes. The addition of 0018
-Backport-GS_APP_KUDO_SANDBOXED.patch is not mentioned anywhere - is it
required? It needs to be made clear. Also, a lot of changes have been
made to the existing patches and things split out of some of them into a
separate patch, but the changelog doesn't indicate the actual real
reason for that ('part of xxx moved upstream' gives someone without
context no real information). Please adjust the changelog and make sure
that all those patch changes are necessary and re-submit.".

Title:
  Classic confined snaps don't install

Status in GNOME Software:
  Confirmed
Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-software source package in Xenial:
  In Progress
Status in gnome-software source package in Zesty:
  Fix Committed
Status in gnome-software source package in Artful:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Apps that use classic confinement show up in search results but don't install.

  [Test Case]
  1. Open GNOME Software
  2. Search for a classic snap, e.g. "atom"
  3. Install snap

  Expected result:
  Either:
  a) Snap is installed
  b) Snap is not installed and error given
  c) Snap is installed but user needs to provide some sort of confirmation 
since it is not confined.

  Observed result:
  Snap is not installed, no error given.

  [Regression Potential]
  Patch changes the code path used to request installation of all snap 
packages.  Ensure that strict confined snaps continue to be installed with 
correct confinement.

  For example, try installing "ohmygiraffe" via gnome-software, then run
  "snap info ohmygiraffe" from a terminal.  The "installed:" line should
  not include the word "classic".
