Comment 5 for bug 2032647

With 20230824 this seems to be much worse. Instead of the terminal appearing for a brief period and then going away, the terminal never goes away.

snap changes shows

ID Status Spawn Ready Summary
1 Error today at 23:05 UTC today at 23:05 UTC Initialize system state
2 Done today at 23:05 UTC today at 23:05 UTC Change configuration of "core" snap
3 Error today at 23:05 UTC today at 23:05 UTC Initialize device

/var/lib/snapd/seed/snaps shows snaps. /var/lib/snapd/snaps does not.

It also looks to me like there's something wrong with the snap deduplication between the squashfs layers in this image.

$ sudo mount /mnt/casper/standard.live.squashfs /mnt
$ ls -l /mnt/var/lib/snapd/snaps/

that looks wrong?
