I installed the snap package pycharm-community using snap (while being logged into my Ubuntu One account). When I run snap list I can see the package in the list. However, I can only run this app when I run sudo pycharm-community. Without root access, I get a pycharm-community: command not found error.

How do I run pycharm without sudo?

EDIT: output of snap version:

$ snap version
snap       2.29.4.2
snapd      2.29.4.2
series     16
linuxmint  18.3
kernel     4.13.0-21-generic

    As your normal user, what happens if you snap run pycharm-community and /snap/bin/pycharm-community, and what if you launch it from the menu/dash? – popey Dec 31 '17 at 11:56
  • snap run pycharm-community runs as a normal user, /snap/bin/pycharm-community does not exist, nor is there any launcher in the menu – MPA Dec 31 '17 at 12:03
  • What's the output of snap version please? – popey Dec 31 '17 at 12:09

$ cd /home

$ sudo snap install pycharm-community --classic

$ pycharm-community

I used cd /home then sudo snap install pycharm-community --classic then just type pycharm-community and it worked.

  • @ChaiT.Rex Done. Input stands for what i input in the shell and output stands for what the shell has returned – Nissaar Dec 31 '17 at 21:46
