Huh, that's an interesting idea. Yeah, if such a thing is possible it does indeed solve the use-cases I've seen. I feel like this should be more gadget-layer (my device with these snaps preinstalled will need a little swap) versus application-layer (my snap needs more memory than you have), but it solves the problem. -- Kyle Fazzari (kyrofa) Software Engineer Canonical Ltd. k...@canonical.com
