Thanks for that. I might be getting confused but earlier this week on my
system, I used "snap refresh" to update all apps - Firefox in particular
and the "Ubuntu Software" app still thought I needed to perform an update.
I've just checked and "Ubuntu Software" says "Software is up to date". Is
there a time lag between snap and "Ubuntu Software"?

HTH,


Ian
