snap has broken after one of recent system updates. For example, telegram desktop stopped working. I managed to remove telegram, but cannot reinstall that. The reason is in broken core22 module:
error: cannot perform the following tasks:- Run configure hook of "telegram-desktop" snap if present (run hook "configure": cannot locate base snap core22: No such file or directory)
I tried to remove core22 to repair that, but it didn't work:
error: cannot perform the following tasks:- Remove data for snap "core22" (522) (failed to remove snap "core22" base directory: remove /var/snap/core22: directory not empty)
I couldn't repair that neither. I tried sudo snap refresh core22 --edge
, though it doesn't work:
error: cannot refresh "core22": refreshing disabled snap "core22" not supported
Attempt to enable core22 with sudo snap enable core22
fails:
error: cannot perform the following tasks:- Setup snap "core22" (522) security profiles (cannot find installed snap "core22" at revision 522: missing file /snap/core22/522/meta/snap.yaml)

Is there any way to fix core22
without complete re-installation of snap on the system? Thanks
