Ubuntu's Mozillateam PPA now forcing users over to snap install for Firefox. in c/[email protected]

This may be caused by pinned versions or preferences not being setup correctly in your apt config, rather than a problem with the PPA. It could have been caused by the recent 117 update.

In /etc/apt/preferences.d/ you can create files to control which versions and releases are used for which packages. This is how linux mint prevents snap from getting in, (even though they package their own firefox with its own customizations). Setting up something like:

Package: snapd
Pin: release a=*
Pin-Priority: -10

and

Package: firefox
Pin: release o=Ubuntu
Pin-Priority: -10

should get it working better for any further upgrades

I've got Google Wallet working on my OnePlus 9 with LOS 20.

I use Magisk 26.1 with hidden app, Zygisk and Denylist. I found the regular Universal SafetyNet fix was getting failures, easy to check with YASNAC, so I'm using the fork from Displax.
