I have been trying to build this myself. I first tried just using the bin download, I was recommended to pursue building from source.

I am getting errors beyond my ability.

Here is what I have so far: https://gist.github.com/JonathanILevi/26eda224c611534286d7c5eda71b9fdf

It is coded mostly in Pascal.

There is a before build shell script which just runs a python script (which is where I am getting my first crash): https://github.com/JonathanILevi/gfie-src/blob/main/linux_before_build.sh

There is then a build shell script: https://github.com/JonathanILevi/gfie-src/blob/main/linux_build.sh

There is also a how-to-compile.txt: https://github.com/JonathanILevi/gfie-src/blob/main/how-to-compile.txt

Dear bot, But is basically the only free thing that saves icns files for making cross-platform applications that have an icon on macOS.

The only viable option seems to be unpacking the .deb archive — the Linux portable version is still stuck at 3.6 when the latest release is 4.2.

I would support the importance of packaging the latest version 4.2.

Just FYI, I opened a PR that would add this (#321007). Reviews would be greatly appreciated
