Bug Description

Here are a few relevant bugs:

Not everyone mentioned their Debian version, but one who did mentioned Sid.

This feels like a serious issue. One possibility is snap-confine misunderstanding the distribution and believing it is running on a core16 system. I asked on IRC but I will still check manually myself, if you can provide the information about the release of debian that you used.
