I have a problem with my Darktable snap package which started when I moved to using the .deb package of Darktable. I don't remember what I did at the time but now I have snapd which tells me that darktable is installed, but any attempts to remove the package fails.
I tried remove, --purge remove, refresh, revert, disable/enable, I tried restarting with systemctl but nothing works.
In a desperate attempt I have deleted the snap user darktable folder and files (in /home/snap) and I also have removed the darktable.snap file in /var/lib/snapd/snaps which probably was stupid and will not help in solving this issue...
This is the output of snap list -all concerning the darktable package :
Nom Version Révision Suivi Éditeur Notes
darktable - 129 latest/stable sergiusens broken
And here are a few output errors with various commands :
sudo snap disable darktable
erreur : cannot perform the following tasks:
- Rendre indisponible le paquet Snap "darktable" (129) pour le système (internal error: only regular files are supported, got "d---------" instead)
sudo snap remove --purge darktable
erreur : cannot perform the following tasks:
- Rendre indisponible le paquet Snap "darktable" pour le système (internal error: only regular files are supported, got "d---------" instead)
sudo snap refresh darktable
erreur : cannot perform the following tasks:
- Rendre indisponible la révision actuelle du paquet Snap "darktable" (cannot restore unlinked snap: internal error: only regular files are supported, got "d---------" instead)
- Rendre indisponible la révision actuelle du paquet Snap "darktable" (internal error: only regular files are supported, got "d---------" instead)
Output of systemctl --failed :
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION
● snap-darktable-129.mount loaded failed failed Mount unit for darktable, revision 129
Output of systemctl start snap-darktable-129.mount
L'unité (unit) snap-darktable-129.mount a commencé à démarrer.

systemd[1]: snap-darktable-129.mount: Mount process exited, code=exited, status=32/n/a
So I don't think it's related to darktable, probably something went wrong at some point when I tried to remove/reinstall/update the darktable snap package, but I don't know what.
Now I don't really know what to try. The only problem is that it prevents me from reinstalling the darktable snap package (if I ever wanted to...).
Thanks for any tips !
