libappimage.so - cannot open shared object file - no such file or directory #11

When I run the most recent LinuxPA appimage, I am presented with the following error:

./LinuxPA: error while loading shared libraries: libappimage.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

I went back a few versions and it launches fine, however it then immediately auto-updates to the new version and stops working due to the missing dependency.

Any assistance in getting it to launch without having to install dependencies would be greatly appreciated! : )

Oops, sorry about that, 2.1.3.0 ( https://github.com/CalebQ42/LinuxPA/releases/tag/v2.1.3.0 ) should work and should ask if you want to upgrade, though I'll change what the stable version is to 2.1.3.0 to make sure it doesn't update.

I have this problem with the 2.1.4.1 version. The version you linked to works though.

I've finally found time to work on LinuxPA again! The latest version (2.1.5.0) is no longer using libappimage.so, but should retain many of the benefits. Many thanks to @probonopd who created https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage which I could pull out a piece of and convert into a working (if a bit bloated at the moment) library at https://github.com/CalebQ42/GoAppImage. The only issue right now is that you MUST have unsquashfs in $PATH (though I might try to work around this by including, or downloading a "portable" version of it) for advanced AppImage integrations.
