[Bug 1170972] Re: Please provide an AppImage

 

This is a great idea, and I would like to learn more about AppImageKit.
However, we are currently making some huge changes to OpenShot, changing
libraries, refactoring, new interface, etc... I would rather wait until
we start stabilizing this source code to work on building an AppImage.
How does that sound as a plan?

Probono, thanks for the offer to help! I would love some guidance once
we begin this process.

Thanks again!
-Jonathan

Title:
  Please provide an AppImage

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  "Using AppImageKit you can package applications as AppImages that run
  on common Linux-based operating systems, such as Ubuntu, Fedora,
  debian and derivatives."

  Distributing an AppImage would cater to many Linux distributions,
  since they include the additional libraries needed to run the actual
  program. Thus, running Openshot would be easier to run for users and
  might result in less support requests.

  AppImageKit as well as documentation can be found here:
