Thank you for your advices.
In case you would like to know, here is a description of the
application called "Maple": https://maplesoft.com/products/Maple/ and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maple
Regarding the "Fedora-30 template", if it has ended it's life long
time ago, then why is it still the template version in Qubes R4.0.3 or
is it just the shown name of the template in the Qubes Applicatons menu ?
Because Qubes ISOs are offline (the reason they are so big) and are
created manually.
There is work on R4.0.4 which has Fedora 32, however it might be a few
days before it gets released
Do I understand you correctly "unman", that I can choose to either
install the application in a template or just in a AppVM, and if so
how do I only install it in a AppVM ?
It depends on the application. We don't know it.
I know if you are using Snap (and maybe appimage or flatpak) you can
install in an AppVM.

If you're looking for specific advice on how to install it, the first
thing to do is to check what *sort* of file it is. You can do this
using
the `file` command.
But from the "run" suffix, I'm guessing it's an installer script. You
would need to check that it is executable by running `ls -l`, or
make it
so using `chmod +x`
I don't know Maple: you may or may not be able to install it in a
template. If it is intended to be installed in the home directory,
then
you should run it in /etc/skel in the template and install it there.
Then it will appear in the /home/user directory in qubes created from
that template.
Otherwise install it in the home directory in a qube. You can always
clone that to other qubes.
When you've determined the best approach, please document it here so
other users can benefit from your experience.
