32 Bit AppImage?

Post by chroma »

I noticed that the only AppImage files that exist are for 64 bit distributions. I have a server that's running a 32 bit Linux distribution and I don't want to upgrade the whole thing just to add FreeCAD functionality. Do 32 bit AppImages exist? If not, what's the easiest way to build them?

Hello chroma! Welcome to FreeCAD and the forum :)
It's probably easiest to use the (daily/stable) PPA assets and pkg2appimage
There is an old recipe here: https://github.com/AppImage/pkg2appimag ... -Daily.yml It would need some updating.

Amusing, but pkg2appimage only has as a 64 bit version.
