Dear all!

So far, I've been offering debian packages for lux, specifically built for 
several distros and versions. This took quite some time, so I was on the 
look-out for an alternative. For now, I've settled on AppImage 
<https://appimage.org/> - building the bundle was reasonably painless, and 
the resulting single-file artifact runs on the linux installations I have 
floating about, namely debian 11 and 12, and ubuntu 22.04 and 23.04. I 
built the artifact on the debian 11 system, because the recommendation is 
to build rather on an older system - I stopped myself from installing 
something even older just for the purpose.

The AppImage 'promise' is that an AppImage should run on a wide variety of 
distros, so I'd be curious to hear from users of other linux distros 
whether they can in fact run this one! Running an AppImage is simple:


   - Download it
   - set the execute permission
   - run it like any other executable


You can download my lux AppImage from here 
<https://bitbucket.org/kfj/pv/downloads/lux-1.1.6-x86_64.AppImage>. Please 
note that this is for AMD/intel 64 bit systems only! It's built from lux 
master, which is slightly ahead of 1.1.6 proper.

If you're interested in the build process, it's script-driven, and the 
relevant build script is in the scripts folder off the pv repo's root, 
requiring only two helper programs and one additional file (the AppRun 
script, needed here to provide the font file path at run-time).
