Canonical Releases New Snapd Snappy Daemon Update with New Interfaces, Bug Fixes

Snapd 2.26.8 comes about nine days after version 2.26.6 as it would appear that Canonical skipped version 2.26.7, and adds a bunch of goodies to those interested in installing Snap applications. For example, there’s now tab-completion support in Snaps, in the way that they can ship with a bash completion script that can be exported to user’s shell. It also adds a new command called “snap whoami,” a new “snap refresh –time” option that users can use to show information about refresh settings, as well as a new “snap tasks –last={refresh,install,remove,connect,disconnect,configure,try}” option. Moreover, Snapd 2.26.8 improves the API interface, the tab completion for interfaces, and the output of the “snap info” command.
