On Ubuntu 18.04 there are normal versions and snap versions for some utilities. You can replace the snap versions and get rid of snap. The only problem is that some things only come as snap versions. For me that is the Heroku CLI.
List all installed snaps: $ snap list Remove them all: $ sudo snap remove gnome-calculator $ sudo snap remove gnome-characters ... Install the non-snap version: $ sudo apt install gnome-calculator $ sudo apt install gnome-characters ... Then remove snap: $ sudo apt remove snapd -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1575053 Title: Please move the "$HOME/snap" directory to a less obtrusive location To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapd/+bug/1575053/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
