Canonical wants to remove LUKS disk Encryption, LVM, most mid-raid modes, ZFS, BTRFS and many other file systems and image parsing abilities from GRUB in a recently announced, Planned change to Secure Boot, Supposedly for "security"

In order to retain these features the system would need to not use secure Boot.

Systems that don't use Secure Boot, or rely on the above features, can not upgrade to Ubuntu 26.10

I don't understand #canonical affinity to #snap .

It's complete garbage. Try to add a corporate CA to a Chromium browser, installed on Ubuntu via Snap.

Good luck.

1. Snap is not enterprise compatible. That's where the money is.

2. Snap pulls in Gnome 3. No one uses Gnome 3 because it's a UX disaster.

3. Snap has a different update cycle.

You don't have to use it. I get it. That isn't the point. It should be discontinued.
