snapcraft bug

[till]

Issue: #1715

This bug re-appeared in 8.0.5.

Before we run goreleaser, we install snapcraft:

Run samuelmeuli/action-snapcraft@v2

Installing Snapcraft for Linux…
snapcraft 8.0.5 from Canonical** installed

Snapcraft is installed at /snap/bin/snapcraft

And then it seems like the usual error:

  File "/snap/snapcraft/11040/bin/snapcraft", line 5, in <module>
    from snapcraft.cli import run
  File "/snap/snapcraft/11040/lib/python3.10/site-packages/snapcraft/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>

I'm not sure this was ever really fixed... I usually create that folder before running goreleaser...

goreleaser/.github/workflows/release.yml

Lines 87 to 88 in 3433f1c

	mkdir -p $HOME/.cache/snapcraft/download
	mkdir -p $HOME/.cache/snapcraft/stage-packages

I don't think you need, no

Is there a way to get more logs from what happens when it generates the snaps? It seems like that error is somehow related to multipass (whatever that is 😭 ). I am already running with --verbose, but the part about snaps is dire.

[caarlos0]

I think it logs the entire output on error... maybe we could pass verbose to it too though

goreleaser/internal/pipe/snapcraft/snapcraft.go

Line 410 in 1493fd4

cmd := exec.CommandContext(ctx, "snapcraft", "pack", primeDir, "--output", snapFile)
