@wknapik Pinging in case you saw this in your testing (noticed some changes recently, so am unsure)

Can't see all these commits but might be related to issues here of which some are patched and some maybe not. Apologies for the ping and my misunderstanding. Thank you and the other devs for all your hard work :) brave/brave-browser-snap#25

Hey @knakamura8. Thanks for the report. This is indeed caused by the most recent change. I asked about it in the snapcraft forum (https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/request-for-auto-connections-for-brave/36514). AFAIK this is just a warning and doesn't break anything, but we'll definitely get this sorted out. For now, let's see what the snapcraft folks have to say.

EDIT: Added a separate topic for this warning in the snapcraft forum.

If you've ever changed the version from Latest/Stable in the Snapstore app to something like Latest/Beta, but then reverted back to Latest/Stable, the problem will go away if you switch back to a Latest/Beta

I have been getting this error from Snap for a while now and it seems that the only thing broken is the connection to CUPS. Printing from Brave doesn't work - nor does it give any error. It just doesn't print. I can only print to a file and then open the file and send it to my printer.

just for feed... the same error here... I use Ubuntu 20;04 LTS and brave installed by snap ...

I just recently did a full clean install of Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS, and the warning still occurs under this issue.

I then came across this forum: https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/request-for-auto-connections-for-brave/36514/2

which references the line:

https://github.com/brave/brave-browser-snap/blob/af26aca7457648128fc72eb606a4571832e4ab5a/snapcraft.yaml#L61

Need to test. Can someone confirm ?

Bump

Same warning occurred in Ubuntu 16.04.7 LTS, Brave version 118.1.59.124

[wknapik]

This should be resolved with the next snap release
