Title:
[WSL] Prepare kinetic for common snap use cases
Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
Users of Ubuntu WSL might be surprised by unexpected dependencies when
dealing with snaps. The Ubuntu WSL 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. This
seems a bug which we didn't yet figure out how to fix in the snaps
themselves. Being such hidden dependencies, we'd expect to soon find
similar cases as those.
* Flutter snap provides all dependencies and runs without issues, but
apps compiled by Flutter requires libgl1, libegl1 and libgtk-3-0
present in the system during development. Attempting to just run any
app compiled with Flutter during development will result in crash due
those libs not being found. Most likely, once package as snaps, those
apps will behave as expected, if the packager lists dependencies
properly. The issue reported here affects the app developer
experience.
One solution for those problems is seeding for Ubuntu WSL
specifically:
- libgl1
- libegl1
- libgtk-3-0
Experienced Ubuntu users would figure out how to overcome those issues
very quickly, but we should expect that most of Ubuntu WSL userbase
won't fit in that persona.
