Bug Description
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.

This one seems the simplest one regarding the other two error message bug reports posted. However, I could use some guidance on how to fix this one if I could have the opportunity to work in this one.
