Linux .snap installer not working on Ubuntu 23.04

[Prodeguerriero]

Hello folks,

Recently, I have tried to install Solar2D on my Ubuntu laptop, using the snap file available on GitHub. I have tried a couple of different builds, but I get this error message:

error: cannot find signatures with metadata for snap
       "Solar2D-Linux-2023.3696_amd64.snap"

After asking on the forum, it turns out that the solution is to use the --dangerous flag.

Based on the above, I think that:

• This might not be the intended behavior, as the release notes do not mention the flag at all
• The README file could use some more details about how to install on Linux

I'd be happy to make the edits to the file and submit a merge request, but I first wanted to make sure someone maintaining the code base agrees. So here I am.

Cheerio,

I'm not one of the maintainers but I think you should definitely add more information on Linux builds. We could definitely use an Installing Solar2D - Linux page on documentation as well as correct information on Releases.
