This is now handled properly, in the case where the snap is classic it is shown as such, and in the case where the snap is not classic, it cannot be installed in classic confinement. See for example a classic snap installed:
``` $ snap info go | grep installed installed: 1.12.9 (4301) 92MB classic ``` and a strict snap that was attempted to install with --classic (note the warning): ``` $ snap install hello-world --classic Warning: flag --classic ignored for strictly confined snap hello-world hello-world 6.4 from Canonical✓ installed $ snap info hello-world | grep installed installed: 6.4 (29) 20kB - ``` ** Changed in: snapd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670060 Title: Not obvious when a snap is installed with --classic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1670060/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
