Can't install snap apps
9
I upgraded from 14.04.x to 16.04 (64 bit) over the weekend. OMGubuntu! just had a post about how notes could be installed as a snap.
Ctrl+Alt+T and then
sudo snap install notes
then enter my password..
sudo: snap: command not found
What is up? What am I missing? I don't want to miss out on this new snap fun.

The following worked on my system:
sudo apt-get install snapd
sudo snap install notes
I needed to log out and then back in for Dash to find 'Notes':
Note: There is currently some confusion with another Xenial package called snap which gives: 'location of genes from DNA sequence with hidden markov model'. If you get dpkg errors to do with this package when installing snapd (in particular overwriting of commonly named man pages) run the following:
sudo apt-get purge snapd
And then you should be right to go :)
The application 'Notes' was perhaps a little underwhelming, other packages look a little more promising:

That is a clash with some DNA software: packages.ubuntu.com/source/xenial/snap named 'snap' believe it or not. Looks like the man pages are named the same. Try
sudo apt-get remove snap && sudo apt-get install snapd and you should be ok...– andrew.46
