flux, 1 year ago to linux in Canonical's Steam Snap is Causing Headaches for Valve

I do think the idea behind snap isn’t all about pushing the Linux platform as such forward, but to specifically gain a market advantage to Ubuntu.

Why else is finding documentation for changing the default store so difficult? And I don’t think you can even have multiple “repositories” there–quite unlike all other Linux packaging systems out there. (Corrections welcome!)

flux, 1 year ago to linux in Does `cp -v` print out the file name when it starts copying it or when it's done?

Another way to check is to

<span style="color:#323232;">strace cp testfile testfile2
</span>

and the sequence in which the message is printed and operations performed can be studied.

It’s perhaps a lot to read, but linux tracing tools are worth learning!
