I was on Ubuntu Jammy desktop.
I am a normal Ubuntu user - with snapd desktop integration, mattermost snap, canonical livepatch snap with desktop integration, etc.
All of the snaps open and running.
Started do-release-upgrade to nobble.
During the upgrade snap auto-refresh kicked in, whilst do-release-upgrade was also trying to refresh and update channels.
Things did not go well, as I had stuck namespaces preventing removal of snaps - and I couldn't even tell why snaps were being attempted to be removed.

Trying to get things going by unmounting things, changing namespaces did not work.
I did not try /usr/lib/snapd/snap-discard-ns during that, as I didn't know it was a thing.
I did kill `snap remove gnome-3-38-2004` to get the do-release-upgrade to keep going, as I wanted that to complete.
Overall it was a bad experience. I don't know if any of the above things are bugs in snapd. But this bug is that likely do-release-upgrade needs better snap integration: either trigger auto-refresh of all snaps (like it requires to apply all .deb updates), or it should hold auto-refresh, or maybe both refresh everything followed by holding auto-refresh.
Given do-release-upgrade changes tracks of things, and there might be migration hooks in snaps, imho it seems better to ensure that all snaps are updated prior to do-release-upgrade. Which was not the case for me. |

Because otherwise everything was stuck on the 3min loops of unable to remove snaps forever (or at least so it seemed).
