Problems with Etcher install on some distros #320

Open Xmetalfanx opened 1 month ago

https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/issues/4144 .... related to debian and therefore Ubuntu removing dep packages ...

idea: consider using the AppImage for those distros?

https://github.com/balena-io/etcher/pull/4226 someone apparently has made a patch and PR but who knows when it MAY get merged

https://github.com/Xmetalfanx/linuxSetup/commit/2610e1cebce597387a287b7efc94ec8a0e649abf is my "fix" for addressing this for now

I am not really sure what to do with this issue, as it's sort of out of my hands until Etcher updates and pulls in that PR that fixes things.

The issue is not with my code

Though i have seen OpenSUSE Leap 15.6 work (Etcher*.AppImage on 15.6) ... so is it only an issue with some distros? (say how Czhawka's AppImage works perfectly fine in Leap 15.6 but at least at the moment even looing for deps ... it doesn't in Leap 15.5)
