Add AppImage CI #1

Closed v1993 closed 1 year ago

Directly based on work of @git-developer in linuxmotehook2/evdevhook2.

The resulting appimage segfaults for me, apparently because of an AppRun bug. It's possible that is was fixed in newer AppRun releases, but development of the entire appimage-builders project seems to have slowed down considerable and there were no new releases for a good while.

I can try requiring older libadwaita - which will require some code changes, but using known buggy runtime has a pretty limited appeal to me either way. I'll probably look into flatpak for now - it has its own limitations, but supporting it is nice in its own right and its development is far from slowing down.

As such, consider this PR stalled. Others are welcome try try and fix it if they are interested, but I'm not going to work on it until a new version of appimage-builder is available, ideally as an update to existing github action.

Note: there are other refinements to do, like excluding many unused packages, but without program actually running I see no point in working on them.

In addition to previously mentioned issues, it would be nigh-impossible to implement autostart for appimage version.

With Flatpak up and running I don't intend to work on this. Closing.
