Why is this needed?
If a service requires installing the
core22
snap, and snapd hasn't already bootstrapped itself as a snap (like it does when installing some other snaps), then the snap install will fail. To prevent this, we check before installing the actual snap if snapd is installed as a snap. If it isn't, we runsnap install snapd
.Test Steps
New integration test will pass with these changes and fail on the archive version
