Error: Unable to access jarfile hightail-combined.jar

Just ran the command given for Linux (sudo snap install --edge hightail) on my home directory and now when I type sudo hightail in my terminal I get the error:

Error: Unable to access jarfile hightail-combined.jar

Output for java --version is

openjdk 11.0.1 2018-10-16
OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.1+13)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.1+13, mixed mode)

I am on Ubuntu 18.04 on a 64bit machine. What to do now?

For the time being, I have got Hightail to work by downloading it from Releases, and running java -jar Hightail-v0.9.7.jar.
However, I would let the issue remain open as it is still left to determine why the snap version didn't work.

I can confirm it does not work. Let's see what the snap guys (see pull request linked above) say.
