Appimage do not run on fresh installed debian trixi

[Mannshoch]

Describe the bug

dlopen(): error loading libfuse.so.2

AppImages require FUSE to run. 
You might still be able to extract the contents of this AppImage 
if you run it with the --appimage-extract option. 
See https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/FUSE

Steps to reproduce

• download appimage
• made it executable
• run it

• nothing happens

• workaround install libfuse2t64

Client PC details (please complete the following information)

• GPU: AMD Ryzen™ 9 PRO 8945HS w/ Radeon™ 780M Graphics × 16
• Linux package type (if applicable): appimage

@Mannshoch thanks for the workaround.

I don't think there's anything we can do about this. It's a limitation of AppImage itself, which requires FUSE.

@cgutman This error occurs because the AppImage for Moonlight is linked against FUSE version 2, and Debian 13 only includes FUSE version 3. Version 2 is available from the standard repo, but it's not installed by default.

Not saying this is a bug in Moonlight, just that it doesn't work on out-of-the-box Debian. Maybe that's worth tweaking for the next release?

[Mannshoch]

The last Moonlight release is long ago. Is there any developement?

[cgutman]

Please give this CI build a shot: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/cgutman/moonlight-qt/builds/52933195/job/xsb8dbtg6feyumpd/artifacts

Upstream linuxdeployqt has migrated to a newer AppImage tool today that may help.
