Permission denied on fresh install

[ewjoachim]

Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve

I have been using gh installed through apt but had to stop because of an upstream issue. I switched to the snap:

$ sudo snap install gh   
gh 2.6.0-15-g1a10fd5a from Casper (casper-dcl) installed

$ gh repo view --web                    
failed to read configuration:  open /home/me/.config/gh/config.yml: permission denied

Proposed solution

It looks like the snap permissions aren't set correctly.

Additional context

Ubuntu 20.04

Are you still seeing this issue? I was unable to reproduce it myself but I'm not sure whether @casperdcl fixed it.

[ewjoachim]

no, they ended up fixing their apt repo, so I switched back to apt

This error is still occurring in a fresh ubuntu install, after sudo snap install gh

[casperdcl]

Could you try sudo snap install --classic gh --channel edge
