As I understand it, Ubuntu Snap encapsulates and manages versions and dependencies. So if I'm using a python application which is installed as a classic snap, how do I pip install additional packages for the application to use inside the snap, without polluting my non-snap environment?



In this instance I want to add some packages to the 'atom' editor which have a bunch of python package dependencies.

  • Does the snap include it's own version of Python? Or does the snap use the system's Python?

  • I don't know. Is there some way to test it? If I do snap run --shell atom and then play with python it presents like the system python. Looking at /snap/atom/current/snap/manifest.yaml there are many references to python, but in the snapcraft.yaml there are none. If it had python packaged into it, where would we expect to find it?

  • I'm thinking python is not included in the snap. Which would leave me kinda screwed: wrap the snap in a virtualenv, or modify the snap to include python and site-packages, or suck it up and install to system. :-/
