I would like to install https://microk8s.io/ on my VPS server based on Ubuntu 18.04 but I've got the following error message: 

apt-get install snapd
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Unable to locate package snapd

What am I doing wrong?

    Does this answer your question? [How do I restore the default repositories?](https://askubuntu.com/questions/124017/how-do-i-restore-the-default-repositories) – N0rbert Feb 02 '20 at 14:52

It is pre-installed software.

Type dpkg -l snapd to check snapd package status. It will show you it is installed, configured, deleted and so on.

  • Yes, I try to install `snap install microk8s --classic --channel=1.17/stable` it shows me `error: system does not fully support snapd: cannot mount squashfs image using "squashfs": mount: /tmp/sanity-mountpoint-722623537: mount failed: Operation not permitted.` – zero_coding Feb 02 '20 at 13:18
  • Okay. I searched the error message and i found this. --> https://askubuntu.com/questions/1143436/snap-not-working This will help. – heechan Lee Feb 02 '20 at 13:29
  • It does not work either. – zero_coding Feb 02 '20 at 13:34
  • I searched another one. https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/cannot-install-snaps-on-manjaro-linux/9615/16 https://forum.manjaro.org/t/snapd-is-not-working-since-downgrade-to-systemd-239-6-2-2-advised-in-the-security-update-on-2019-01-19/73774/33 According to these questions & answers, one kernel module should be needed. What you have to do is type `sudo modprobe loop` and try to install snap app. I think this one helps you. If it fails, type `journalctl -xe` as root to see what is going on. – heechan Lee Feb 02 '20 at 13:45
