Bug Description
[ Description ]
eoan:
livecd-rootfs | 2.599
bionic:
livecd-rootfs | 2.525.27
Images currently being built have non-functional snaps. Seeding never finishes, and the journal contains:
Jul 15 13:52:16 ubuntu snapd[944]: stateengine.go:102: state ensure error: devicemgr: cannot proceed without seeding "core"
[ Fix ]
Explicitly seed 'core', since snapd still requires it currently.
[ QA ]
Boot a desktop ISO to the live session. Snap seeding is slow, so wait a couple of minutes. Check that the seeded snaps (e.g. gnome-calculator) are available in the Shell.
[ Regression potential ]
Image builds could start failing. They'll now have core where they didn't before, so that is a size increase.
[ Original report (rest of) ]
seed.yaml doesn't contain core:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ cat /var/lib/
snaps:

I think it is due to this change in livecd-rootfs:

Which stopped unconditionally seeding core. But this can't be the whole story, since disco was built with that livecd-rootfs and it *does* have core.

I guess bringing it back in snap_prepare except for ubuntu- cpc:minimized builds would work?
