snapd daemon program seems to be incompatible with squashfs 4.5 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install snapd : emerge -av snapd 2. launch snapd daemon : systemctl enable --now snapd 3. snap install hello Actual Results: snap install fails with error "snap is unusable due to missing files" Expected Results: snap should install the package Same here at debian : https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=993233 snapd fix https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/10567 Temporary fix is to emerge =sys-fs/squashfs-tools-4.4_p1 instead of current stable =sys-fs/squashfs-tools-4.5
This was a show stopper for me and the above linked patch does fix the issue. There is also a discussion about the issue https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/cannot-install-snap-file-snap-is-unusable-due-to-missing-files/25719/26 that shows the same "missing files" error.
