Bug Description

[Impact]

[Test Case]

[Regression Potential]

[Other Info]

[Original Description]

Please include the "journalctl -u snapd" output and /var/lib/snapd/state.json if possible. This will allow easier debugging of snap related issues.

Please note that the content of /var/lib/snapd/state.json may contain sensitive information (macaroons) so this data needs to be handled with care or we need to provide a way to scrub this data.

@mvo,

The 'snappy.py' plugin already provides the journal via 'add_journal()'[0] method producing the following: 'sos_commands/snappy/journalctl_--no-pager_--unit_snapd'

Note that this is already part of every supported Ubuntu stable release.

It would only be a matter of collecting '/var/lib/snapd/state.json' as suggested while not revealing sensitive information.
