Linux Build

[MajorTomDE]

I love it on Windows and it will be so great if you can provide also an up-to-date Linux build >> appimage or flatpak

Your linked Linux build fork is very old.

Thank you so much

[Lymphatus]

The linked build was a community effort and it's indeed a little bit old.
I'm not really an AppImage expert but I'll try some solution and maybe start releasing it along with Windows and macOS versions.

I uploaded v2.6.0 AppImage https://github.com/larygwil/caesium-image-compressor/releases

[garywill]

@Lymphatus I use Github Action to build AppImage. Here's the script I use
https://github.com/larygwil/caesium_image_compressor_build_linux/tree/ci/.github/workflows
step 1: build_cic.yml
step 2: make_appimage.yml
the script currently has many flaws, and many that need improvement.

@garywill Thanks for sharing it! I was experimenting a little bit to have an Action to build it on release, I will take yours and try to tweak accordingly.

A flatpak would be phenomenal for those not using GCC linux machines (hi!).

That said, I have Caesium in my list of things to try packaging for Alpine Linux, but I was blocked my last time with rust/cargo issues building/packaging libcaesium dependency.

[Lymphatus]

@Saijin-Naib on #260 there were a couple of fixes for the build script, don't know if might help. If you have any issue building libcaesium on a specific machine just open an issue on the repo. I'll get into it.

+1 for a Linux build, would be awesome to have a flatpack and see this officially distributed on Flathub.

Would like to see an official AppImage and Flatpak release for easy and portable installation
