Comment 4 for bug 1949893

Even with the workaround it seems something seems racy, I got a correct run with:
"""
    snap set system system.network.netplan.network.bridges.br54.dhcp4=true
    ip link | MATCH br54
    netplan get | MATCH br54

    snap unset system system.network.netplan.network.bridges.br54
    snap get -d system system.network.netplan | NOMATCH br54
    ip link | NOMATCH br54
"""

but the next run failed with:

"""

+ NOMATCH br54
+ snap get -d system system.network.netplan

and manual running apply with debug yield no change:
