Issue body

When trying to make a snap, but there's an error in the desktop file, the same exception is raised for all the possible errors: - file does not exist - missing 'Desktop Entry - missing 'Exec' key This exception only mentions the problem, but doesn't explain how to fix it. To add this information, we need to either split the exception, one for each case, or add a field for the information about the fix.
