I upgraded my Ubuntu to 19.10 where chromium was relocated into a snap image. Now there are two folders with exactly the same size:
$ du -shc /snap/chromium/*
574M /snap/chromium/920
574M /snap/chromium/937
0 /snap/chromium/current
1,2G total
snap only lists the 937:
$ snap list chromium
Name Version Rev Tracking Publisher Notes
chromium 78.0.3904.97 937 stable canonical✓ -
How can I safely remove the old one? (Or are those hardlinked anyway, so I wouldn't gain any diskspace?)
snap list --all to list all versions including old ones. Old versions will be listed as "disabled"snap remove chromium --revision=920 to remove the old one.You could use the following script to remove all old snaps.
#!/bin/bash
# Removes old revisions of snaps
# CLOSE ALL SNAPS BEFORE RUNNING THIS
set -eu
LANG=C snap list --all | awk '/disabled/{print $1, $3}' |
while read snapname revision; do
snap remove "$snapname" --revision="$revision"
done
Or, just ignore it since snap will only keep the 3 most recent versions.
