Snap developers can use this tool to help them debug and fix policy violations.
Each snap runs confined inside its own sandbox. The policy of each sandbox describes what the application is allowed to do. When an application tries to do something that is not allowed, the system logs a policy violation.
This snap
Run the following command to start watching policy violations.
sudo snappy-debug
If you have dropped messages, try the following command instead.
sudo journalctl --output=short --follow --all | sudo snappy-debug
Note: these commands only show policy violations that happen after you run them. So first run one of these commands and then run the snap that you want to debug.
See snappy-debug --help for more information about this tool.

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
On a Raspberry Pi running the latest version of Raspbian snap can be installed directly from the command line:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install snapd
You will also need to reboot your device:
sudo reboot
After this, install the snapd snap in order to get the latest snapd:
sudo snap install snapd
To install snappy-debug, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install snappy-debug
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
