Bug Description
Distro is Kubuntu 20.04
I got a notification message about the new Chromium version or about the Chromium update (I don't remember precisely). I wanted to restart the browser to do something to help the update so I closed it then I couldn't find the starter icon of its.
sudo snap refresh said
snap "chromium" is already installed, see 'snap help refresh'
chromium command said chromium is not installed.
Then later I could start it again using the chromium command.
Please create a better notification about the upgrading process not just about the update possibility!
I should note in my opinion this quick upstream update process is a very good and necessary solution especially if the package is/was a browser.
Informing about and managed updates vs running or not application is an area we are working on.
