Public bug reported:
As .snap package costs a lot of space we need ability to store it on
removable drives. But it's impossible to run they from there. Only way
to run .snap is to mount it running "sudo snap install --dangerous
<.snap location>" command, that copy package into '/var/lib/snapd/snaps'
and maybe do some other things.
In theory, it's need to be '(sudo if need) snap run *--dangerous <.snap
location>*' here, that will temporary create symlink to my .snap in
'/var/lib/snapd/snaps', mount and then run it. If there is many apps in
one package, it’s can be done to have exceptions for "one app" .snap’s
and for .snap’s that have "main_application: *app name here*" in
snapcraft.yaml. Otherwise "Cannot run, this package contains many
applications and don't have a "main_application" option defined. Install
it instead? [Y/n]" message should be displayed.
