TL;DR

How to create system wide alias to snap package in Ubuntu 16.04?

More details

I would like to install Blender as a snap. I found, that there is blender-tpaw package which can be installed. Unfortunately after installing it, it is available in terminal under name blender-tpaw, not blender.

Using snap alias

So first of all I've tried to run command sudo snap alias blender-tpaw blender, according to: https://insights.ubuntu.com/2017/01/28/ubuntu-core-how-to-enable-aliases-for-your-snaps-commands/. But this is what I've got:

error: cannot perform the following tasks:
- Enable aliases for snap "blender-tpaw" (cannot enable alias "blender" for "blender-tpaw", no such alias)

Create symbolic link in /usr/local/bin

Then I've tried to make symbolic link sudo ln -s /snap/bin/blender-tpaw /usr/local/bin/blender but in this case very strange thing happen: now when I type blender in a terminal I've got output of snap command…

Put alias in /etc/profile.d

I've also tried to create alias in /etc/profile.d/alias.sh

alias blender='blender-tpaw'

But this work only, on my Ubuntu 16.04 Server, but doesn't work in Ubuntu 16.04 Desktop.

What I want to achieve?

I want that this alias will be system wide, for all users, without changing manually .bashrc for each user separately. And I want the same way working on Ubuntu Server, and Ubuntu Desktop as well.
