Hello all,

With assertions finally being put to great use, it's time to kill the
term "sideloading". That term does a disservice to our conversations,
because it is vague and also limits the thinking around what is possible.

I have a question related to "sideloading" a snap.

Yesterday while testing a fix for our network-manager snap, I refreshed my rpi2 ( running the 'experimental' image ) which resulted in a new ubuntu-core snap, which I discovered now enforces the assertion that a snap must be signed in order to install, even when side-loaded. I was told on #snappy that I could circumvent this check via the --force-dangerous parameter, which worked for me. I was also told that this parameter may just be shortened to "--dangerous", and that "--devmode" may cause this to automatically set.

My question is what is the process for getting a snap signed? Is this something that's done automatically when a snap is published to the store?

The snap I was testing was built by launchpad. Is it possible to sign a snap locally ( ie. like debsign )?

Regards,
/tony
