Support upstream projects in providing AppImages

Open probonopd opened this issue 9 years ago • 4 comments

This ticket tracks issues of upstream projects interested in providing AppImages.

An AppImage is a distribution format for applications that can run anywhere without installation: Distribute your desktop Linux application in the AppImage format and win users running all common Linux distributions. Package once and run everywhere. Reach users on all major desktop distributions.

Note to upstream application authors: If your project appears in this list, it most likely means that AppImage has been suggested as a way to distribute your application. Please open an issue in this project if you are an upstream application developer requesting support for packaging your application as an AppImage.

Find details on AppImageKit here.

This repository contains some example Recipe files that show how to package applications as AppImages.

Also, many projects are building on Travis CI using Qt; these could potentially be interested in providing AppImages of the build results.

qbittorent depends on libtorrent-rasterbar which depends on newer boost libraries - they are available in epel6, but I cannot make libtorrent-rasterbar see those boost libraries (boost148)

Might be necessary to build all the special deps yourself? If they don't build it's probably best to seek help from the upstream project. Sometimes apps have higher build-time requirements than CentOS 6.

KDEnlive is now provided as an AppImage: https://kdenlive.org/download/ MediaInfo AppImages are a work in progress: https://github.com/MediaArea/MediaArea-Utils/commit/8b00c71a7aae851409bc3b0b2fafad5a9fe14d2a
