Since snap is really just another package repository, you can query it the same way you query whatever package manager you have been using. Snapd itself has to be installed via dpkg on an ubuntu system in order for it to function.
So if you compare the output of 'snap list' to 'dpkg -l' you should be able to find out which programs are snap. THAT SAID, it looks like there is an extra wrinkle where ubuntu installs stub .deb packages for snap programs that don't actually contain any files. So snap programs will still show up in dpkg because the folks over at canonical are all Olympic gold medalists in mental gynmastics. -Ben ------- Original Message ------- On Sunday, September 10th, 2023 at 3:20 PM, Keith Lofstrom <kei...@keithl.com> wrote: > On Sun, Sep 10, 2023 at 05:18:11PM +0000, Ben Koenig wrote: > > > Mint is a popular choice for people who are familiar with Ubuntu but don't > > want these higher level changes. > > ... > > > There is a lot of diversity in the Linux world, you can always find a > > distro that suits your wants/needs.
