Bug ID: 447445
Summary: appimage extension should be AppImage for desktop
integrations
Product: krita
Version: 5.0.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: jus...@linux.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
The appimage extension should be capitalized so other AppImage tooling can work
to keep it updated and integrate it with a users desktop.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install appimaged via https://github.com/probonopd/go-appimage
2. Download krita .appimage file (integrations won't work)
3. rename file extension to .AppImage (desktop shortcut launcher will be
created)
OBSERVED RESULT
Downloading the appimage file wouldn't let me launch it from my desktop search
and a shortcut wasn't created. Renaming the extension made the integrations
work.
EXPECTED RESULT
The app would be integrated into my desktop launcher like other app image files

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I really appreciate that you create an app image option because it's the
easiest way for me to download and manage the application.
