Description Samueru 2025-03-14 10:58:04 UTC 
Description:
The appimage builds still depend on libfuse2 because they are using the old AppImage/AppImageKit instead of AppImage/appimagetool.



Steps to Reproduce:
Download the appimage

Actual Results:
It complains that libfuse2 is missing

Expected Results:
It should be using the new appimagetool that removes said dependency, this has been out for 3 years at this point.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
All that has to be done is update the url here: https://git.libreitalia.org/libreitalia/loaih/src/branch/main/src/loaih/build.py#L263

In other words replace "AppImage/AppImageKi" for "AppImage/appimagetool"

The new appimagetool is a drop in replacement, so no other changes are needed.

Don't see an issue posted yet at https://git.libreitalia.org/libreitalia/loaih/issues

Assume it to require an adjustment to your AppImage YAML recipe script for libreoffice.

@Emilliano, @Garbriele ok to MOVE this or close NOB?

Apologies for the belated answer, I was convinced I already have answered months ago :(

I think this is correct, this issue should be closed as NOB - indeed the build and release process for AppImages is a community effort (and not TDF's).

I'll link to this bug report briefly in the repository for the build script, nonetheless; this is something I'd like to look into in the next few hours/days.
