Bug Description
When running subiquity 21.06.01 from channel latest/stable, it shows this message in one of the initial screens:
Version 21.01.2 of the installer is now available (21.06.01 is currently
running).
so it is suggesting to update to a version older than the current one (21.01.2 is from the latest/
snap info shows that subiquity is tracking latest/
tracking: latest/
but not sure why that happens, as seed.yaml seems fine:
snaps:
-
name: core18
channel: stable
file: core18_2073.snap
-
name: snapd
channel: stable
file: snapd_12397.snap
-
name: subiquity
channel: latest/stable
classic: true
file: subiquity_2502.snap
Yeah, snapd doesn't have a concept of ordering of versions, it just offers you the version in the channel you are tracking if it is different to the one you are running. How did you end up in this situation? Using livefs-editor to inject an updated snap to the 20.04.2 media?
