well, we have kernels, bootloaders. cli apps and lots of server snaps
too ... there is even a "wifi-ap" snap that makes it easy to turn a
srver or core install into an AP ... :)

there are even things like strongswan or easyvpn snapped in the store

the default tracks are built against a 16.04 base snap, xenial released
originally with 1.1.93 so the 1.2.2 might actually be correct here ...

the 1.10 tracks are most likely built against 18.04 and the 20/* tracks
are WIP for a 20.04 base (most likely switching to 1.26 to be in sync
with the 20.04 release before a 20/stable release shows up ) ...
