Bug Description
I tried to uninstall the notes snap without noticing it was still running on the desktop:
$ sudo snap remove notes
[|] Remove security profile for snap "notes"
error: cannot perform the following tasks:
- Remove snap "notes" from the system (remove /snap/notes/
That resulted in an error that now prevents me either removing it or reinstalling it.
The only workaround was to wipe out the whole snappy installation.
