Update package repositories test
Metadata
Current evaluation
Task to update the package-repositories spread test for core26 once the deadsnakes and snappy-dev PPAs have resolute suites. The snappy-dev workaround is still in the code; a contributor volunteered 90 days ago, but the issue is unlabelled and unassigned.
Suggested action: needs triage
Reason: The issue is unlabelled and unassigned, and the only comment is a contributor's 2026-06-02 question ('can I work on this issue?') with no maintainer response. The workaround is still present in tests/spread/_common/package-repositories/task.yaml ('drop this section when the snappy-dev ppa has a resolute suite (#6239)'), so it remains relevant, but a maintainer needs to triage the volunteer and confirm the PPA suite status.
