Public bug reported: After a recent 'apt update' I noticed that all snaps on my system (Ubuntu 24.04) failed to run, all with the same error as shown via hello-world below:
$ snap --version snap 2.71+ubuntu24.04 snapd 2.71+ubuntu24.04 series 16 ubuntu 24.04 kernel 6.8.0-85-generic $ snap install hello-world hello-world 6.4 from Canonical✓ installed $ snap run hello-world cannot set capabilities: Operation not permitted I downgraded snapd and was able to successfully run all my snaps once more: $ wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/741432764/snapd_2.63+24.04ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb $ sudo dpkg -i snapd_2.63+24.04ubuntu0.1_amd64.deb $ sudo systemctl restart snapd $ snap run hello-world Hello World! In case it makes a difference, the snaps I tried were 'bw', 'thunderbird', 'firefox' and 'hello-world'.
