[Bug 1723094] Re: Live images should be able to turn off Snap updates

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package casper - 1.391

---------------
casper (1.391) bionic; urgency=medium

  [ Jean-Baptiste Lallement ]
  * scripts/casper-bottom/55disable_snap_refresh:
    - Set refresh timer of snapd to 60 days on live session (LP: #1723094)

  [ Iain Lane ]
  * Modify the script a bit
    - Install in /run as a transient directory
    - Be WantedBy snapd.service, instead of Requires snapd.service & WantedBy
      multi-user.target, and update the symlink to match. It makes sense for
      us to order ourself to start right after snapd does.

Title:
  Live images should be able to turn off Snap updates

Status in snapd:
  Confirmed
Status in casper package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in casper source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  There should be a way to turn off Snap updates while allowing Snaps to
  still run.  When Live CD images start having Snaps installed by
  default they won't want the packages to be updated while in live mode
  but they will want applications to be runable.

  Probably there should be a setting for this and Casper should be
  easily able to set that setting.
