Small update: we have now merged a change that allows snaps to work on system where the users' home directories are not /home/<user>/ but /home/<some>/<path>/<user/
If you are running such a system, you are welcome to try out snapd from our edge channel:
snap refresh --channel=latest/edge snapd
then configure the homedirs location using the command
# Real homes are located in /home/users/tom, /home/losers/dick,...
snap set system homedirs=/home/users,/home/losers

Please report back on your (mis)fortunes. :-)
If your home directories are located somewhere else (not under /home), please subscribe to https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/snapd/ +bug/1620771 instead.
