This is similar to bug #1951210, and would require an update to the system-packages-doc interface, like https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/11588.

Contributions welcome!

I believe this was fixed with snapd 2.55.3 which is now in Jammy so I'm closing this bug.

This was regressed with a later commit that refactored that code. The regression is being tracked by bug #1951210, so no need to re-open this one.
