Title: How to use AppImage in SliTaz GNU / Linux 5.0 Rolling (weekly)
Hello dear colleagues.
I need help to run the programs in AppImage format, unfortunately I was not able to make it work on SliTaz GNU / Linux 5.0 Rolling (weekly).
Could you please help me to run AppImage programs on SliTaz GNU / Linux 5.0?
I changed the properties of the programname.AppImage, with the right mouse button, Properties, Permissions tab, changes in Access control, View content: Anyone, Change content: Anyone, Run: Anyone, Okay, two clicks on the programname.AppImage file or pressing Enter, did not work in SliTaz.
I tried to apply the commands via terminal:
$ chmod a + x programname.AppImage {Enter}
$ ./programname.AppImage {Enter}
or
$ sudo ./programname.AppImage {Enter}
Password:
s: ./: Permission denied
But unfortunately it didn't work on SliTaz.
Note: The AppImage are executable programs, the entire program and its dependencies are in a single file, this is the way I found to solve the difficulties in needing to install offline packages regarding the posting of the link: http: // forum. slitaz.org/topic/como-instalar-os-pacotes-no-slitaz-50-em-computador-ou-notebook-sem-acesso-a-internet.
I already thank anyone who can help me.

Título: Como usar o AppImage no SliTaz GNU/Linux 5.0 Rolling (weekly)
Olá caros colegas.
Eu preciso de ajuda para executar os programas em formato AppImage, infelizmente eu não consegui fazer funcionar no SliTaz GNU/Linux 5.0 Rolling (weekly).
Por favor poderiam me ajudar a fazer funcionar programas AppImage no SliTaz GNU/Linux 5.0?
Eu alterei as propriedades do nomedoprograma.AppImage, com o botão direito do mouse, Propriedades, aba Permissões, alterações em Controle de acesso, Ver conteúdo: Qualquer um, Alterar conteúdo: Qualquer um, Executar: Qualquer um, Ok, dois cliques sobre o arquivo nomedoprograma.AppImage ou pressionar Enter, não funcionaram no SliTaz.
Eu tentei aplicar os comandos via terminal:
$ chmod a+x nomedoprograma.AppImage {Enter}
$ ./nomedoprograma.AppImage {Enter}
ou
$ sudo ./nomedoprograma.AppImage {Enter}
Senha:
s: ./: Permisão negada
Mas infelizmente não funcionaram no SliTaz.
Obs.: Os AppImage são programas executáveis, todo o programa e suas dependências estão em um único arquivo, esse é o meio que encontrei para resolver as dificuldades em necessitar fazer instalações de pacotes offline referentes a postagem do link: http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/como-instalar-os-pacotes-no-slitaz-50-em-computador-ou-notebook-sem-acesso-a-internet.
Desde já agradeço a quem puder me ajudar.

Hello marcelocripe,
I tried to apply the commands via terminal:
$ chmod a + x programname.AppImage {Enter}
If you type the command as you wrote it in your post, it won't work. There is no space between "a" and "+" and no space between "+" and "x". Type [c]chmod a+x programname.AppImage[/c].
AppImage files may seem attractive at first, but it is not so simple.
First, most of the .AppImage file you'll find are for 64bit computers; they won't work on your 32bit computer. Can you tell me the exact name of the file you've downloaded, please, and may be the url of the site where you downloaded it?
Second,"unfortunately it didn't work on SliTaz" does not help... Can you be more precise: nothing happens, error message (which one)... ?
And finally, some libraries can be missing. I tested with minetest:
[c]$ chmod a+x Minetest-5.3.0-dev-i386.AppImage
$ ./Minetest-5.3.0-dev-i386.AppImage
/tmp/.mount_MineteYwOyFI/usr/bin/minetest: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory[/c]
The package manager tazpkg allows you to find the package that contains the missing library:
[c]# tazpkg search-pkgname libGL.so.1
Search result for package "libGL.so.1"

Installing mesa ([c]tzpkg -gi mesa) solves the problem but

Seems Minetest-5.3.0-dev-i386.AppImage needs at least glibc-2.15 but in SliTaz

I'm affraid that .AppImage won't bring you the solution you are waiting for...

Hi
I know this is quite old topic, but here are links to AppImages repos.
Maybe it will be useful for someone.
