Enable snaps on CentOS and install bpftrace
Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
Enable snapd
Snap is available for CentOS 7.6+, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:
Snap can now be installed as follows:
|
1 |
$ sudo yum install epel-release |
|
1 |
$ sudo yum install snapd |
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
|
1 |
$ sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket |
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
|
1 |
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap |
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
