--- Comment #8 from ouinouin <julien.bresci...@free.fr> --- (In reply to Maik Qualmann from comment #7) > There is also the possibility that it is an AppImageLauncher bug: > > https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher/issues/652 > > Unfortunately no answer from the AppImageLauncher developers yet... > > Maik i digged in a lot of unsolved bugs of this type, i finally was able to fix this bydecompressing the image and rebuiding it , it first complained about the desktop files being at the root of the folder not being real desktop files, so i copied the desktop files located in usr/share/applications to the root , then it was complaininf about missing icon for showfoto , so i copied the digikam.png and renamed showfoto.png to give a try , and could build image with appimagetool. first try : complains about desktop file : appimagetool, continuous build (commit 5735cc5), build <local dev build> built on 2023-03-08 22:52:04 UTC /home/ouinouin/testappimage/digiKam-8.5.0-20240924T100117-Qt6-x86-64-debug_3f5bdd0503e367bc9a9a796b6353f72b.appimage/org.kde.showfoto.desktop: error: file contains line "usr/share/applications/org.kde.showfoto.desktop", which is not a comment, a group or an entry ERROR: Desktop file contains errors.
