Issues with Ubuntu 19.10 (and probably earlier) #544

I installed via snap on Ubuntu 19.10 and got this error when trying to run:

$ cool-retro-term
/snap/cool-retro-term/150/bin/desktop-launch: Zeile 385: /snap/cool-retro-term/150/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/gio-querymodules: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
/snap/cool-retro-term/150/bin/desktop-launch: Zeile 442: /snap/cool-retro-term/150/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
/snap/cool-retro-term/150/bin/desktop-launch: Zeile 552: /snap/cool-retro-term/150/usr/bin/cool-retro-term: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

"Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden" means "File or Directory not found" - am I missing any dependencies or libs?

why installing this via a snap? its available via apt install cool-retro-term anyway, I'm pretty sure this issue is related to snap

I'm on 19.10 and cool-retro-term works fine when installed via apt

I'm running Ubuntu 19.10. I don't see it in the official repos. PPA?

Snap did not work on my Ubuntu 20.04 system. Strace says something about: write(2, "need to run as root or suid", 27need to run as root or suid) = 27 Weird. Switching to apt to see if that works....And it does! Cool!

shall we rename and close this? personally I don't like snap and I use it only when I have no other choice.

19.10 is unsupported for a long time ago... 21.10 goes out of support next month

both 20.04 and 22.04 the last two LTS release have this package available via apt

why installing via snap is beyond my mind
