I wanted to try the new snap store, but it’s crashing…

You can see the output here:

$ snap-store

Let me know if I can do something to provide more information or testing.

Thanks. Sounds like a bug, and the bug tracker link is https://bugs.launchpad.net/snap-store/

Thanks, I didn’t know it had its own bug tracker on lunchpad :blush: It was already reported Bug #1866218 “Snap store snap not launching on Ubuntu 16.04 with...” : Bugs : snap-store-desktop

I had this same problem in the beta version of focal-fossa 20.04 LTS, my solution to solve the problem was: executing the command “sudo snap refresh” in the terminal updated the snap-store solving the problem.
