Snap apps doesn't start with snapd 2.27.6-1.1

I was testing snap for a while on openSUSE Leap 42.2 and it was working fine (or maybe I was lucky). After Xmass break the problems started to occur and mos of apps do not start anymore.

With some apps I can see some backtrace on others there is nothing - for example with discord 0.0.3 (rev 41):

Failed to generate minidump....

In other apps the gtk theme and font errors are repeating. Of course I have canberra module and fonts installed. I’m curious if you experience similar problems or is it just me ? :wink: With some of the snap applications I was able to revert to previous revisions and some of them worked fine.
**
Maybe this is a problem with outdated snapd in the snappy OBS repo ?** 2.27 is from September and the current one is 2.29.x. Fedora guys already have 2.29.x version and it looks like it solved some of the problems - link

Submit a rebuild “feature” request to https://bugzilla.opensuse.org with details, eg the desired target version, and with supporting info like your link for why a newer version is highly desired.

Hello TSU, if you don’t mind I will need a little help here - you mean I should open a “normal” bug for product: openSUSE.org, and component: OBS Request ? Or should I put it into Distribution / Tumbleweed ?

I just noticed that somebody already tried to build snapd 2.29.4 on Tumbleweed and Leap 42.3, but with errors - link to OBS.
