F/OSS hacker, mostly working on #OpenVPN - speaks only for himself. ex-Twitter account (now inaccessible): https://twitter.com/DavidSommerseth "Don't aim to be someone. DO something." #nobridge - because I believe in the real #fediverse, and I don't want my own views/data to be abused by yet another "closed-service which can do whatever it wants for profit". **If you want to follow me**, you now **MUST** have some content on your profile where we have some common ground on interests. I will no longer accept random profiles wanting to follow with no toots or no other follows or followers in the same interest sphere.

The #AppImage "packaging" approach being embraced by many projects is just another poor approach. It does not really solve what it is expected to should solve: Dependency issues.
More and more .AppImage downloads now produce results like these:
/tmp/.mount_tumpa-Z5HMuu/usr/python/bin/python3: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/tmp/.mount_activiXYBUA0/aw-qt: symbol lookup error: /tmp/.mount_activiXYBUA0/libQt6WaylandClient.so.6: undefined symbol: wl_proxy_marshal_flags
I dunno if it is due to incorrect packaging or a design artefact with AppImage.
I believe #flatpak is the only true sane way to go. At least if you don't want to frustrate users.

I wonder if @Tutanota@mastodon.social plan to update their #appimage to a more recent runtime. Because with the recently released #Fedora44 their apps does not work anymore.
