snap umake?

[thufir]

I'd never heard of snap until today.  it's a sort light package manager?


I was considering:

thufir at dur:~$ 
thufir at dur:~$ snap install ubuntu-make
error: This revision of snap "ubuntu-make" was published using classic 
confinement and thus
       may perform arbitrary system changes outside of the security 
sandbox that snaps are
       usually confined to, which may put your system at risk.

       If you understand and want to proceed repeat the command including 
--classic.
thufir at dur:~$ 
thufir at dur:~$ umake --version
16.11.1
thufir at dur:~$ 
thufir at dur:~$ cat /etc/lsb-release 
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=17.10
DISTRIB_CODENAME=artful
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 17.10"
thufir at dur:~$ 


because I saw them use snap here:


https://github.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-make/issues/474


and thought that might fix an android studio install.  Would snap cause 
problems if there's umake v16.11.1 and also "classic"?  





thanks,
