Public bug reported:
Today suddenly the snap version of chromium made a comeback when I clicked a
link. I had deliberately removed it and installed chromium-browser from deb.
The deb version is still active on the system and was my default browser. But
today the snap version suddenly snapped the link instead of my selected default
browser. I do not wish to use anything snap because I have had very bad
experiences with them, even on 22.04. Weird errors that steal much time so I do
not want anything snap. Please!
I was expecting to have the link launch in my default browser chromium-browser.
I have removed the snap chromium with snap remove chromium so it should not
even have been on my system any more.
which chromium
/snap/bin/chromium
Description: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
Release: 22.04
Even your instructions like "The version of the package you are using, via
'apt-cache policy pkgname'" below do not work with these snaps.
