Snapd 2.23.6 is now the latest stable version of the daemon, available for all supported Ubuntu releases. It brings robustness improvements to the configuration hook system by implementing a 5-minute timeout for the configure hook, along with the ability to report any failure. Additionally, Snapd 2.23.6 fixes to the interfaces-cups-control component for the upcoming Ubuntu 17.04 (Zesty Zapus) operating system, renames the file that contains the snap-confine AA profile to “workaround dpkg,” and updates the snapstate to restart when needed if the core or kernel snap was relinked.
