Title: Is there a 28.1 snap of Bitcoin Core for Ubuntu? Post by: xyzzy099 on March 18, 2025, 11:30:57 PM I have been running Bitcoin Core on Ubuntu for some years now, and a new version usually gets a new snap pretty quickly - but currently my Ubuntu 24.10 system is stll showing 27.1 as the latest version, even though 28.0 and 28.1 have been released for months.
Is my snapd broken, or have snaps for Ubuntu been stopped for some reason? Title: Re: Is there a 28.1 snap of Bitcoin Core for Ubuntu?

Looking at https://github.com/bitcoin-core/packaging/pull/251 (https://github.com/bitcoin-core/packaging/pull/251), there's some kind of technical issue from developer side which prevent them from distributing latest version. So you may want consider different distribution/installation method.

If you want, you can probably switch to docker instead of snaps? It's valid suggestion. But IMO Flatpak distribution may be better option for OP[1], since it have more similarity with Snap.
