Zygmunt Krynicki (zyga) wrote : Removing backing directory of try mode snap breaks refresh of other snaps

I had a snap in my home directory, installed with "snap try". This created a symlink from /var/lib/snapd/snaps/foo_x1.snap to ~zyga/foo/. I moved ~/foo to ~/Documents/foo and then tried to refresh an unrelated snap bar. Refreshing bar failed with the following message:

zyga@t470:~$ sudo snap refresh bar --edge
error: cannot refresh "bar" stat /var/lib/snapd/snaps/foo_x4.snap: no such file or directory
