AppImage not running on Fedora 41

[nfa04]

What happened?
I downloaded the AppImage from the Website, gave it permission to be executed and ran it. It showed only a white screen, while when after closing it, it doesn't open again. I made sure all dependencies are installed as described on the installation guide.

What did you expect to happen instead?
The UI should show up.

How can we reproduce the bug? (as minimally and precisely as possible)
Run Fedora 41, try to open the AppImage.

My devcontainer.json:
Doesn't exist yet.

Local Environment:

DevPod Provider:
None yet.

Here is the AppImage console output from Fedora 41

I do have this error as well with fedora 41. With some research i found out that a lot of other apps have the same problems. like :

GitButler : gitbutlerapp/gitbutler#5282

It looks like the issue come from webkit itself : https://www2.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=280239

downgrade dependency look like the temporary solution.

I'm using Arch and had to downgrade to:

• mesa-1:24.1.0-1
• llvm-libs:17.0.6-2

I'm using Arch and had to downgrade to:

* `mesa-1:24.1.0-1`

* `llvm-libs:17.0.6-2`

Thank you for your reply.

We were facing the same issue on Fedora 40 and downgrading mesa (sudo dnf downgrade mesa-libEGL to revert back to version 24.0.5-1.fc40.x86_64) allowed us to start devpod once again until a better solution can be found.

Thanks for your help, unfortunately mesa-libEGL-0:24.2.4-1 is the oldest version available in the fedora 41 repos. I'm still hoping for a fix soon, but at the moment thankfully don't really need it.

This also applies to Fedora 40 as well:

I'm getting this on Fedora 41 KDE:

Just FYI, as a workaround until this gets fixed, I've been able to start DevPod on Fedora by using the Targz instead of the AppImage, after a sudo dnf install libappindicator-gtk3 to fix this:

Same error happens on Ubuntu (pop os). The workaround proposed by @vorburger worked for me too.
