Public bug reported:
Users of Ubuntu WSL might be surprised by unexpected dependencies when
dealing with snaps. The development team is looking for ways to let
early adopters to experiment some snapd support in Kinetic, while still
providing the most seamless experience for them. Tests done in WSL
instances showed surprises that we should mitigate soon. Some examples
are:
Sublime Text and Sublime Merge apps silently depend on libgl1.
Flutter snap provides all dependencies, but apps compiled by Flutter requires
libgl1, libegl1 and libgtk-3-0 present in the system.
Besides those, LXD, missing on Kinetic, is a good support for cloud
related use cases, which are a large share of our user base, and also
can be a good source of telemetry usage information, alongside with
snapd.
One solution for this problem is seeding for Ubuntu WSL specifically:
- libgl1
- libegl1
- libgtk-3-0
- lxd
