appimage build with linuxdeploy no longer crash with (CTRL + O)

[GerryFerdinandus]

Tested on Manjaro rolling release Linux

The current appimage dev + release crashes when menu => open file is selected.

Rebuilding the program with linuxdeploy instead of linuxdeployqt gives a better result. It no longer crashes when (CTRL + O)

GitHub action Appimage built from 3 different Ubuntu server all works.

linuxdeploy appimage version warning in terminal is only one line + working (CTRL + O)

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

With linuxdeployqt build I get warnings about missing GTK items etc. And then crashes when (CTRL + O)

Note that in the new connection 'QT SerialBus devices' is grey out. So there is still something missing here.

'QT SerialBus devices' is now working
Was missing canbus plugin.

Before creating Appimage:

mkdir -p appdir/usr/plugins
cp -r $QT_PLUGIN_PATH/canbus appdir/usr/plugins
