2019-05-11 11:42:25 Benjamin Tegge description I'm using the communitheme and gnome-characters snap on Ubuntu 18.04 which broke at some point about two month ago. Screenshots are here: https://askubuntu.com/q/1142291/40581 I found that ~/snap/gnome-characters/current/themes is a broken link even when removing the respective snap folder for the app, removing and then reinstalling the gnome-characters snap. This has worked before, please take a look at this. In the meant time i fixed this with the following commands, according the the error message: rm ~/snap/gnome-characters/current/.themes cp -av /snap/communitheme/current/share/themes ~/snap/gnome-characters/current/.themes Reproduce steps --------------- 1. $ snap install gnome-characters communitheme 2. logoff and select communitheme session at the greeter (probably needs a reload of GDM or reboot, I'm running the wayland session but it also happened of X) 3. $ snap run gnome-characters Symptoms -------- I'm using the communitheme and gnome-characters snap on Ubuntu 18.04 which broke at some point about two month ago.
