system does not fully support snapd: cannot mount squashfs image using "squashfs - mount failed

Question

I'm attempting to install PowerShell on my Ubuntu instance using snap, but it generates an error:

# sudo snap install powershell --classic
error: system does not fully support snapd: cannot mount squashfs image using "squashfs": mount:
       /tmp/sanity-mountpoint-072786794: mount failed: Operation not permitted.

I'm running Ubuntu Eoan in a LXC container on a Turris Omnia router:

# lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 19.10
Release:    19.10
Codename:   eoan

# uname -m
armv7l

# snap --version
snap    2.42.1+19.10
snapd   2.42.1+19.10
series  16
ubuntu  19.10
kernel  4.14.162

I'm able to create a directory in /tmp.

This posting suggests that I need at least kernel 4.4.0-6.21; I have 4.14.162.

Why is this failing?

sudo apt install fuse squashfuse works.

I'm having the same issue running LXC under Arch with kernel 5.8.9. This Stackoverflow answer might be relevant, but I haven't looked into it yet. In the end I stopped troubleshooting this because running snaps inside an LXC container seems a bit... excessive.

Try sudo apt install fuse squashfuse snapcraft.io/docs/installing-snap-on-fedora

install fuse and squashfuse fixed this for me. Might be a good idea to add it as an answer.

this didn't work for me
