Current evaluation

Closed with no Snapcraft fix: the vague 'Sorry, an error occurred in Snapcraft' report was a Wekan/MongoDB 4.0.7 packaging question; sergiusens redirected it to the forum and the reporter agreed.

Resolution: closed not a bug

Reason: No code change was made. Maintainer sergiusens asked for clarification on 2020-08-24 and stated it was more about designing the reporter's own snap, recommending the Snapcraft forum instead; the reporter replied 'I will discuss in forum. You can close this,' and the bug was closed.

Issue body

Hi, I received this error "Sorry, an error occurred in Snapcraft": https://launchpadlibrarian.net/416709803/buildlog_snap_ubuntu_xenial_amd64_wekan-meteor-1.8_BUILDING.txt.gz I was building Wekan repo meteor-1.8 branch: https://github.com/wekan/wekan/tree/meteor-1.8 and there is also snapcraft.yaml file used. With this being newest change: https://github.com/wekan/wekan/commit/5e7e9e8c0dc0318916c6584d93164247a1788733 Because I'm trying to get Wekan https://wekan.github.io working with MongoDB 4.0.7, and I used legacy version of MongoDB 4.0.7 that would not produce error about libcurl: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1058517/mongod-error-while-loading-shared-libraries-libcurl-so-4-cannot-open-shared I would prefer building Ubuntu 18.04 based snap, that would work with Ubuntu 14.04 and newer. I have been trying different options to get that working. Wekan does work with Meteor 1.8 and MongoDB, but problem is how to correctly get newest MongoDB working. One previous attempt is here: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/how-to-connect-to-localhost-mongodb-in-snap-apparmor-prevents/7793/7 The problem there was that MongoDB 4.0.7 unix file socket does not work, like it works with MongoDB 3.2.21. I could also try to use MongoDB 3.6 if it's not possible to get MongoDB 4.0.7 working, but I would really like to use features of MongoDB 4.0.7, and use Ubuntu 18.04 as base.
