[Bug 1788040] Re: Replace LXD deb by snap in Ubuntu 18.10

[Stéphane Graber]

I've confirmed that adapt from the cosmic archive works just as well
with the snap as it does the deb.

  Replace LXD deb by snap in Ubuntu 18.10

Bug description:
  Starting with Ubuntu 18.10, LXD will only be distributed as a snap.

  Existing users will need to be migrated on upgrade and all reverse
  dependencies be made aware of the snap.

  For those reverse dependencies, make sure that you either:
   - Use the "lxc" and "lxd" commands WITHOUT hardcoding any paths (as they'll now be under /snap/bin/)
   - Use the API and known to look for BOTH /var/lib/lxd/unix.socket and /var/snap/lxd/common/lxd/unix.socket

  The "lxd" deb will remain around, so it's fine to still
  suggest/recommend/depend on it as that'll just install the snap as
  needed.
