Comment 2 for bug 1680471

I've tried to reproduce it in various ways but haven't managed so far: I can install the wifi-ap snap from egde successfuly on my desktop, on a clean 16.04 VM and on clean ubuntu core image (in all cases running snapd 2.23.6).

Also I don't see anything suspicious in the state.json file you attached (but I guess that's expected, the failure you see indicates the state couldn't be updated with provided value, so we will not find it there)
