Public bug reported:

Hi, on a s390x system (means Linux on IBM z Systems aka Mainframe) I am
able to find several snaps, like:

$ snap find hello-world
Name         Version  Developer  Notes  Summary
hello-world  6.3      canonical  -      The 'hello-world' of snaps
or:
$ sudo snap find snap | wc -l
16

But when I try to install one of the snaps (for example the suggested 
hello-world) I get a timeout:
$ sudo snap install hello-world
error: cannot perform the following tasks:
- Download snap "ubuntu-core" (124) from channel "stable" (Get 
https://068ed04f23.site.internapcdn.net/download-snap/b8X2psL1ryVrPt5WEmpYiqfr5emixTd7_124.snap?t=2016-08-04T21:09:18Z&h=aca8127645952ba8db7a33454d8bdd0300acdc9a:
 dial tcp 77.242.195.172:443: i/o timeout)

I can put the given URL to my local browser, download the snap manually,
rename it, move it back to the s390x system and install it there - so
snap/snapd seems to work in general.

But shouldn't it be possible to be able to install snaps, especially in
a case where I was able to find some before ?

I'm using this snap/snapd version:
apt-cache policy snapd
snapd:
  Installed: 2.11+0.16.04
  Candidate: 2.11+0.16.04
  Version table:
 *** 2.11+0.16.04 500
        500 http://us.ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports xenial-proposed/main s390x 
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     2.0.10 500
        500 http://us.ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports xenial-updates/main s390x 
Packages
     2.0.2 500
        500 http://us.ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports xenial/main s390x Packages

The system is not directly connected to the internet, but is using a squid 
proxy.
That allows to connect to various http and https internet sites, like:
curl https://www.google.com

So it shouldn'T be a connectivity issue ...

This system is inside Canonical and I can do any kind of debugging in
case needed or even grant access to it internally.
