We have had this tested on neon and on centos and it works fine.  do reopen if you have any more information on what might be up.

Hello Jonathan Riddell,
Thanks for your comment.
I did not manage to run it yet.

So should I just ditch snapcraft and try something else? Also, what is the correct way of installation if not via snapcraft.io page that i shared? 

Btw what is neon here?

Warm regards,

Please install the latest from the snap store ( 22.08.2 ) https://snapcraft.io/okular
If it doesn't open via icon then...
Open a terminal and type /snap/bin/okular and provide terminal output.
