Should we start a bounty? Current .deb requires the user to have sudo privileges and installs into root file directory. The first one is cumbersome for TailsOS users and the second one is cumbersome for QubesOS users.

An AppImage, in contrast, is a self-contained packaging for linux programs, that doesn’t require sudo privs nor installation to root file dir. The user can simply double click on the AppImage and it will get Haveno working instantly.

Currently, Haveno/-Reto doesn’t have an AppImage release. How do we get one? I am not a programmer, so I can’t cook one for them. So, would opening a bounty on bounties.monero.social be helpful?

    You don’t really need to install it. Extract the deb and then extract the data archive. You can then run bin/haveno

      I wasn’t aware of that, will take a look. But the original request still stands.

      Does deb come with the java dependencies packed together? Because, this is one of the advantages of am appimage, the enduser doesn’t have to hunt down the dependencies.
