start snap service, delete snap backups, do a refresh and disable it again
#!/bin/bash
# this script starts the snapd service, deletes old snap images, does a refresh and disables it again
# put it in /usr/local/sbin/snap-update and give it executable rights
# Note: If you run apt upgrade and there is an update to a package that is managed by snapd,
# the upgrade will hang if snapd is still masked, so remember to unmask snapd in that case
# and start apt upgrade again
set -x
systemctl unmask snapd.service
