Closes ppy/osu#30187
It turns out that the new AppImage runtime does not play nice with an external tool called AppImageLauncher, which simply doesn't seem to support the type-2 runtime: AppImage/type2-runtime#12
Resulting in many projects experiencing the same/similar issues:
And now, osu!.
Velopack switched to type-2 upon request, because we wanted to use
zstd
compression. This was my mistake, because we were actually usingzlib
(which is mapped to bygzip
). The PRs involved were:I will be PRing the revert to Velopack upstream, but in the meantime I've built a custom package from https://github.com/smoogipoo/velopack/tree/revert-type2-runtime + https://github.com/smoogipoo/velopack/actions/runs/11274894456
@peppy I intend to rebuild the existing release on Linux ASAP to prevent more issues like ppy/osu#30187
I have tested that it runs, but I don't have AppImageLauncher installed so have not reproed the original issue.
