Core

core24

build-base: devel is no longer required for core24 snaps.

Advanced grammar has been extended and can be used for all part keywords except plugin-specific keywords.

core24 known issues

  • Root level part keywords do not support grammar LP#2061603
  • Project variables (such as $CRAFT_ARCH_BUILD_FOR) are not evaluated in a snapcraft.yaml (#4704)
  • Snaps using the gnome-extension can only be built in environments where the core24 snap is already installed because the core24 snap is still in beta.
  • Remote builds of snaps with PPAs may fail to build (#4740)

Remote build

The new remote-builder introduced in snapcraft 8.0 has been upstreamed to craft-application and improved.

Remote build changes

  • Only one remote build is allowed per project. Previously, multiple builds could run for a project.
  • snapcraft remote-build --recover does not accept a build-id
  • snapcraft remote-build does not accept the deprecated --build-on parameter. Use --build-for instead.
  • Launchpad credentials have moved from $XDG_DATA_DIR/snapcraft/provider/launchpad/credentials to $XDG_DATA_DIR/snapcraft/launchpad-credentials.
  • Instead of falling back to the legacy remote-builder, snapcraft will fail if a project is not in the top level of a git repository or is shallowly clone.

Reminder: Legacy remote-build behavior can be used for bases core22 and older with the environment variable SNAPCRAFT_REMOTE_BUILD_STRATEGY="force-fallback". See more information in the documentation.
