alex.henrie [1] filed a deletion request for snapcraft [2]:

I tried to resurrect this package, but the latest version of Snapcraft
depends on old versions of numerous Python packages which Arch
rightfully does not provide. Since it's been impossible for a long
time to make a working Arch package for Snapcraft, it should be
deleted from the AUR and users should be told to install Snapcraft via
Snap like Canonical recommends:

yay -S snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo ln -sf /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
sudo snap install --classic snapcraft
