@TheTollingBell (from your comment).
I'm on it. Should be done by end of tomorrow EST time.
Sorry, forgot that #1230 was blocking. I'll wait till all blocking PRs are merged before starting.
@TheTollingBell the changes from #1230 have been merged to master, so we're ready to build to the intermediary JPackage app image.
@Jabster28 has expressed interest in working on this too, in which case we're happy to take the first acceptable solution, in the interest of time for the next release.
Almost done with my changes. I forgot to check on this issue lol.
Right now, the Linux CI builder uses JPackage to build for each platform, but the package is reset every time. JPackage supports building into an intermediary app-image (not an AppImage) and building the individual installers on top of that. Using this instead of rebuilding that will save a lot of CI minutes, and may be necessary once we also have Flatpaks and AppImages.
I've been thinking of doing this for a bit, and @\TheTollingBell raised the idea of putting it in an issue. I'll try and get this done after we merge these two PRs, as that'll be less likely to break anything.
