AppImagekit: Download and install v10 #37

Closed thopiekar closed 6 years ago

thopiekar commented 6 years ago

Something I have lying around here for a while.

(As an exchange for the plugin uninstallation fix in Uranium :wink: )

This is not enough :( We need to update the commands in cura-build as well because the executables in AppImageKit changed. Something was different about the installation as well iirc.

I got it to work eventually on my own computer, but got stuck when I tried to run it in CentOS 6. AppImageKit requires Squashfuse 1.12 (?) but Squashfuse 1.12 is not supported on CentOS 6 (it only runs 1.11.2 and earlier).

thopiekar commented 6 years ago

Don't know whether squashfuse is really needed. Afaik, it is statically linked into the prebuilt binaries. So there should be no issue. 🤞

The AppImageKit team has a section in their docs, which describes how to migrate. So far I was too lazy to look into it.

By the way, why is CentOS being used here?

Ghostkeeper commented 6 years ago

AFAIK CentOS was chosen because it provides a fairly bare-bones installation.
