Aqua Nautilus researchers have identified a security issue that arises from the interaction between Ubuntu’s command-not-found package and the snap package repository.

I’ve been really enjoying LMDE (Linux Mint Debian Edition) as a main distro. It asks you during the install what package systems you want to include and you can just not select snap 👌
