Public bug reported: When looking at the transition from the awscli deb to the aws-cli snap, I noticed that the aws-cli snap is a classic snap.
This means that the command shown in command-not-found output does not actually work: $ aws Command 'aws' not found, but can be installed with: sudo snap install aws-cli sudo apt install awscli See 'snap info aws-cli' for additional versions. $ sudo snap install aws-cli error: This revision of snap "aws-cli" was published using classic confinement and thus may perform arbitrary system changes outside of the security sandbox that snaps are usually confined to, which may put your system at risk. If you understand and want to proceed repeat the command including --classic. $ It is not ideal that cut-and-pasting the shown command returns an error. I am not sure that it is better to add the '--classic' flag to the commandline, since that also encourages users to cut and paste without necessarily understanding the implications of installing a classic snap. ** Affects: command-not-found (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1763507 Title: command-not-found does not tell users they need to use --class to install classic snaps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/command-not-found/+bug/1763507/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
