AppImage not launching on Linux #81

Closed Neigdoig closed 1 week ago

Neigdoig commented 6 months ago

I tried downloading your AppImage and running it on Linux Mint 21.3, and I get an error related to libappimage, saying that it isn't "registered", whatever that means. Maybe you can take a look at that?

Does this still happen with the latest release?

Neigdoig commented 1 week ago

After getting that release, it works. Maybe an upgrade to Mint 22 and a new release did the trick.

More likely that we build AppImages in an "official" way. The previous one was more or less just a NixOS package with direct launch capabilities.

Neigdoig commented 1 week ago

So potentially, when I originally got your browser, it was built with Nix in mind?

No, in fact it was PKGBUILD only for a long time. Then NixOS came and since it was easy to build an AppImage like thing with the existing package, this is the way it played out. Now there is a proper binary tarball to build the AppImages from, which is much better.
