Public bug reported:


it would be great if you could differentiate between the snap package and the original package. (e.g. firefox-snap, or if you really need the thrill call the original firefox-classic) 
how someone would consider a completely different installation just a different version, is beyond me. 

of course i understand that you are doing it intentionally, to force
your sense of better sandboxing on the people and you do not care about
the devastation in its wake. this is called bad leadership.

thanks!
