sudo snap install snapd, error: cannot communicate with server: Post "http://localhost/v2/snaps/sanapd": dial unix /run/snap. conect: connection refused.
Metadata
Current evaluation
User support request: snapd installed via apt on a Raspberry Pi Zero W fails to start, so `snap install snapd` reports `dial unix /run/snapd.socket: connection refused`. No Snapcraft involvement; unlabelled and untriaged.
Suggested action: close not a bug
Reason: The report never involves Snapcraft — it is a `snapd` daemon/runtime problem on Raspberry Pi OS armv6 (Pi Zero W), i.e. a support question, and this repo's own .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml routes 'Issues running snaps' to https://forum.snapcraft.io/c/snapd/5. The pasted output is also garbled ('sanpd', 'sanapd', '/run/snap. conect') indicating a non-US keyboard layout, and the reporter supplies no logs (`systemctl status snapd.socket`), OS release, or snapd version. Nothing in the Snapcraft source tree touches the snapd socket daemon (grep for snapd hits only docs/tests), so there is no in-repo fix to make; the correct outcome is redirecting the reporter to the snapd tracker/forum.
