Here's what elopio already tested from https://launchpad.net/%7Esnappy-dev/+archive/ubuntu/snapcraft-daily/+build/10701782

Hello Sergio, or anyone else affected,

Accepted snapcraft into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapcraft/2.16 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.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

Tested in an up-to-date xenial virtual machine with kvm.

 * Installed snapcraft, snapcraft-examples and snapcraft-parser
 * Enabled -proposed
 * Updated snapcraft, snapcraft-examples and snapcraft-parser to 2.16.

I ran the following tests:

Variables:

  Build and run a snap using snapcraft variables in the build.
  Build a snap using snapcraft variables in the yaml.

Plugins:

  Build python2 and python3 snaps and check that they include no .pyc, .pth nor pycache.
  Build a nodejs snap in arm64.

Grade:

  Build snaps with grade devel and stable.
  Push the snaps to the store and release them.

Cleanbuild:

  Make a faulty snap and run cleanbuild with --debug.

Errors:

  Build a snap with file conflicts.

Store:

  Register a private snap.
  Push a private snap.
  Release a private snap.

I'm going to mark this as verified. Thanks Martin!
