Public bug reported:

I'm trialing the development release of Ubuntu 20.04, installed in
December and kept up-to-date by regularly running apt full-upgrade.

I understand from [1] that 20.04 will ship
gnome-{calculator,logs,characters} as APT packages rather than snap
apps, and gnome-software as a snap app (called snap-store) rather than
an APT package.

Following an apt full-upgrade in late February, I now have:

* both the snap and the APT versions of gnome-{calculator,logs,characters}
* still only the APT version of gnome-software, no snap-store

Is this normal? A user in the #ubuntu+1 IRC channel reports that a fresh
install of the development release:

* only features the APT versions of gnome-{calculator,logs,characters}
* features the snap-store (but also the APT version of gnome-software)

Are users of older installs of the development release supposed to
manually uninstall the snap versions of
gnome-{calculator,logs,characters} and manually install the snap-store?
