** Description changed: - It looks like snapd in ubuntu-core (2.26.14 here) has been modified to - use a negative Nice value in systemd. Systemd seems to treat a failure - to apply the requested Nice value as critical to unit startup. + [Impact] - Unprivileged LXD containers do not allow the

All charms using snaps are currently failing, so I'm looking forward to a snapd release with the commented out Nice. The alternative is adding the systemd override workaround to the snap layer and making everyone rebuild and republish their charms. -- You received this bug notification because

@xnox "As on the 18th systemd migrated that can set Nice in artful yet you disabled it on the 18th." our development focus is 16.04 and we do not have release specific systemd units for the forward ported snapd packages so the comment will have to stay in until xenial has a fixed systemd ...

So I'm confused, wasn't the SRU supposed to have been fixed for this? We're still getting reports of users that have a broken snapd because of this issue, some of whom then decided to switch to privileged containers just to avoid this problem, therefore loosing a lot of LXD's security features

Yeah, xenial is where most of the snapd users are for us, so that'd certainly be desired. We wouldn't need trusty though as snapd doesn't work inside trusty containers. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.
