Yes, snap packages have us worried about the forced upgrade too. We decided, thought, that for people attempting to figure out FRRouting that this would be a good way to allow people to try us out. I know Martin was looking at this at one point and I do not remember what he came up with.
Martin do you remember?Yes, my thread on this topic seems to break all records on longest
(and still active) thread in the snap craft forumHere is the main thread with all the discussion:

Greetings
I had occasion to experiment with canonical's lxd which forced me to
use snapd. In the process of this education I found that canonical
forced dialy upgrades/updates (not sure which is the correct term). In
trying to tame this insistence of ET's on calling home I got to a
solution, suggested on the snapd forum which seemed to work. The
result was that every month (the new updating frequency) my system
would shut itself down because I had refused to let it connect to the
snapd and lxd mother ships.
Your FRRouting, that I have just found, looks like quite interesting
stuff but I'm seeing where installing from snapcraft is considered an
option. As I have had quite some pain from snapcraft/snapd I am
curious as to why something that forced daily upgrades/updates is
being used to install software that 'just needs to work'?
If this kind of question is considered 'not nice' I will apologize in
advance but I still would like to understand the logic behind choosing
this method of installation.

Dee
