Download Metalinks with cURL for Debianish distros
This snap ships a build of cURL with [Metalink][1] support to provide a workaround for Debianish GNU/Linux distribution where the feature is not enabled due to the missing packaging of libmetalink([Debian][2], [Ubuntu][3]).
This snap does not guarantee to be up-to-date with upstream and free of security exploits, and is only recommended for downloading metalinks only.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.

On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the Arch User Repository (AUR).
The manual build process is the Arch-supported

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git
cd snapd
makepkg -si

sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
If AppArmor is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps:
