care about bug reports anyway. Maybe this explains why snap continues to
be completely awful but you're foisting it on everyone anyway.)

This is not what's happening. I've tried to explain this

one provided by Ubuntu
Again, this is not true. If it were true, then "apt-get install firefox"
after uninstalling the Ubuntu Snap loading version, would REINSTALL THE
UBUNTU SNAP LOADING VERSION, not the version from

To clarify, yes, this "fixed" it, but obviously "Go and find anything
that does updates and cripple it" can't be the solution.

I mean, I literally cut and pasted what apt-get does in my bug report,
how the hell did you conclude from that it's not "snapd or the system"
and that it's a version number issue from that?

I should stress that by this I mean "the process for temporarily fixing
this". The system will still install the unwanted Snap version in the
background at a later date.

Can you maybe further expand on how this is "does not appear to be a
bug" because I cannot fathom any set of circumstances in which "Someone
has intentionally removed a program, let's re-install it even though
they've explicitly stated they don't want it" is NOT a bug.
This is absurd. How is it
Happened again today. Again, was anything pushed last night that might
have triggered this?

Title:
Snap keeps uninstalling apt
This happened again this morning. Before uninstalling the snap, I typed
apt policy firefox which reported:
firefox:
Installed: 1:1snap1-0ubuntu2
Candidate: 108.0.1+build1-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1
Version table:
*** 1:1snap1-0ubuntu2 500

Also, in case it helps:
$ dpkg -l firefox*
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend
|/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad)
||/ Name Version Architecture
The output of apt policy firefox on my system is:
firefox:
Installed: 108.0+build2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1
Candidate: 108.0+build2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1~mt1

Launchpad, help.ubuntu..com, and Google for answers on this but not been
able to.
I have uninstalled the snap of firefox multiple times, installing the real
