Managing Snap packages

My local tips for managing Snap packages.

ZSH and X menus

By default the ZSH environment will not pick up the icons and menus installed by snaps. To fix this, update the following:

# in: /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60x11-common_xdg_path
#
# add "/var/lib/snapd/desktop" to the XDG_DATA_DIRS variable
#
# e.g.:
#

     XDG_DATA_DIRS=/var/lib/snapd/desktop:"$XDG_DATA_DIRS"
     export XDG_DATA_DIRS
  fi
fi
# END OF FILE
