I've check this with Chipaca, there is no plan to change anything in
snapd wrt this bug on the following basis: (a) user can look at the
channel map to know what's in stable, and (b) store can change what's
returned outside the channel map, which snapd will forward on.
** Changed in: snapd
Status: New => Won't Fix

Bug description:
[Impact]
GNOME Software can show incorrect version of snap that will be installed on
details page.
[Test Case]
1. Open GNOME Software. Ensure blender or spotify snap is not installed.
2. Select blender or spotify snap (tried 28-04-2018, may change if store
versions are changed)
Expected result:
Version label shows version to be installed (stable channel by default)
Observed result:
Version label shows most recently uploaded version, i.e. from the edge
channel. This is not the version that will be installed when clicking install.
[Regression Potential]
The logic around choosing which version value to show was changed. Could
create other bugs with this data.
Orignial text:
Ubuntu Software, when showing metadata about a snap package, is most
of the time, likely to get information which is misleading, since it
shows info from the *most recently* uploaded snap, regardless of which
channel the snap was uploaded to.
An example of this is to search for blender, and see that the version
shows the edge channel - 2.80-4de142e0b7b and not the stable channel -
2.79.
After actually installing the application, the correct metadata is
shown.
