Linkbranch appimage issue

Post by Jakeo-93 »

Operating System: ArcoLinux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.94.0
Qt Version: 5.15.4
Kernel Version: 5.17.9-arch1-1 (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i5-8265U CPU @ 1.60GHz
Memory: 7.7 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics 620

The appimage no longer opens for me on my system after an update. I get the boot pop up as normal but the program fails to launch

Im using the latest release. It has been working well up to this point, Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as its a shame because the latest freecad weekly opens without issue but Linkstage wont and I prefer Linkstage

Start it from the CLI and copy/paste the error

Pardon for asking the simple question but do i just copy the code into the command line or is there a specific place to put it.

Thank you

In the command line to test, you need to make a script and edit the desktop file to point to it if you want a shortcut, another option is to unpack the appimage, remove the problematic library and then repack it. You also need to adapt the command to your system, check the actual path of the library.

for now ive decided to use the linkbranch as a snap instead. Im not far enough into linux to fix this and i assume this wont be a bug much longer.

Thanks for the help

a good decision, unfortunately it seems even if it gets fixed this will be a recurring bug when there are updates for libstdc++, quite a disappointing aspect of appimages.
