We've been using appimage-build for some time, and are quite happy with it. But today we're getting the following error, using today's 1.1.0 release:

I not sure if https://github.com/AppImageCrafters/appimage-builder/releases/latest should take you to the binary.

I guess that your download link is wrong, please use https://github.com/AppImageCrafters/appimage-builder/releases/download/v1.1.0/appimage-builder-1.1.0-x86_64.AppImage

Thanks, you're correct. But we're again seeing the "can't find AppDir message" that prompted us to update to today's build. Trying to find out why this started happening. 

GenerateMethodError(appimagebuilder.modules.generate.command_generate.GenerateMethodError: 
Unable to find an AppDir, this is required to create a recipe.

This error is occurs when you try to create a recipe using appimage-builder --generate and there is no AppDir for it to use. Generating the recipe is only required once, so if you already have working recipe you don't need to use the --generate.
