Staging ground for LimeSuite + LimeSDR snaps

Building a snap

#pick one of the directories, each contains a snapcraft project file
cd <directory>

#simply type snapcraft to download all of the dependencies and build
snapcraft

#the output is a .snap
ls *.snap

Install a snap

Install the .snap that we just built with snapcraft. The snap will be unpacked into /snap//current. Any executables in the snap will be available in the $PATH and in the /snap/bin directory as <package-name>.<executable-name>

#This is an unsigned package, use --force-dangerous
sudo snap install --force-dangerous <package-name>.snap

Remove a snap

sudo snap remove <package-name>
