I cannot reproduce this with side-loaded hello-world. I get the correct revision each time (100..1, then ...2, then ...3)

Ok, so this is what this bug is about:

When setup-profile runs it does the following sequence of actions:

 - disconnect the snap in question, remember the list of snaps that were affected by this disconnect
 - remove the snap from Repository (the one with the older Revision)
 - add the snap to the repository (the one with the newer Revision)
 - auto connect the new snap
 - reload connections for the new snap
 - setup the security of all affected snaps

The last step is where the bug shows up. The list of affected snaps is remembered as a list of snap.Info objects. Those keep the old .Revision around.

summary: - Installing a new two times leaves it with profiles referring to older
- revision
+ setup-profile configures security based on snap.Info from
+ DisconnectSnap, which still sees older revision

Hello Michael, or anyone else affected,

Accepted snapd into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/2.0.3 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.
