Wondering about best practices for managing and auto-updating appimages. Have to use a few and Discover appstore (Kubuntu) does not support them, so I’ve been meaning to setup a way to auto-update them. Currently have them living in ~/appimage directory.
Wouldn’t mind basically adding to a command or cron for something like apt-get get upgrade && flatpak update && something-appimage
appimages are programs i want on a specific version. they do not get updated.
Oof
I use Gearlever
You might want software like this: https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher
Thanks, is pretty nice. Part I’m still unclear on is how to auto-update all appimages, as opposed to individual selection. Would ideally add to a basic script to update appimages after regular package manager. See this issue. I do see
ail-cli
is used, so learning more about how to use it. See this issue on documentationMy bad, mixed it up with this: https://github.com/mijorus/gearlever
This has a “check for updates” function, I’ve never bothered using it though.
Cool, both are nice tools!
Bazzite theorically auto updates but Im not sure it does for me, so I just start the system updater that updates, system, flatpaks, brew etc from time to time when I plan to reboot anyway.
