Frameworks are centrally managed in the store, and gardened by Canonical. They are primarily intended for mediation of resources - not as a means of declaring dependencies on a language runtime. The recommended solution to this problem under Snappy is for the app developer to bundle the language runtime (here, the JRE) in their snap package. There are tools that can facilitate creating such a snap, such as Mike Terry's deb2snap. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
