"interface file missing" in snapd 2.58 + lxd + fedora

Thanks for your bugreport.

Is this is regression, i.e. was this working with 2.57.x? Or with a previous version of lxd ?

Yes, correct. This started failing once snapd updated to 2.58. On the original attachment it's possible to see that the command "snap set system refresh.hold=2023-01-14T19:38:14.031694Z" works with 2.57.6 but then fails with 2.58 right after. Thanks!

Thanks for double checking! Can you please try to run "snap revert snapd" ? This should bring you back to version 2.57.6 and double check? This should also unblock you from this failure until we figure out what is going wrong.

Michael, it is really hard to revert as this happens in the container created with LXD through Snapcraft.

This also affects Arch and NixOS users

I also just ran into this as part of an exception raised by craft-providers:

To add to this, on Arch Linux, 6.1.7-zen1-1-zen kernel:

This is fixed with https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/12533 and waits for the release of 2.58.3
