It only soves the problem partially. The drawback of AppImage is that it cannot package an application containing multiple executables such as Emacs. The best solution may be coping Apples' app-bundle idea. An app-bundle is just a folder containing metadata, executables, shared libraries (dylibs), text files and images. This package format can be installed by just dragging and dropping the folder to /Applications directory and
deleted by just removing the folder. The Finder file manager shows the app bundle as the application icon and allows running the app by clicking on the app-bundle folder. This idea is easy to implement on Linux, it would decrease Linux fragmentation and the work duplication
that happens when packaging some application. |
