Hello,

Why not using pamac-snap-plugin with Pamac ?

If you followed this


still snap-store is not a package that Manjaro provides, but is actually a snap package …

I am using it but there are quite a few snaps that arnt available on pamac, this is the only reason.

Getting the same exact error. Don’t know why. Tried reinstalling snapd multiple times, following all the instructions at the “How to install Snap Store on Arch Linux” page, installing apparmor. Tried with and without sudo. Any help is greatly appreciated!!

I found a temporary solution until snap is fixed in Manjaro (h/t to mborzecki):

This is something I see on Arch too and AFAIK it’s caused by fonts cache. I can only get it working if I remove ~/snap/snap-store/common/.cache/* and wipe my fonts cache in ~/.cache/fontconfig .

Do You try : Manjaro Snapcraft - Snap Store Install

That’s what I initially tried. Not sure if the issue has been fixed.
