Appimage GLIBC is too new (add Flatpak)

[imbev]

What happened?

The appimage binary does not launch. This happens because my system uses an older version of GLIBC than the build system. Using an older Linux distribution for the appimage build or replacing the appimage with a Flatpak package would resolve this problem.

Version

2024.8.2

What operating system are you on?

Linux

In my case it froze the whole OS every time I tried to click on it.

Can you be more specific about what operating system and version you're running on? For context, Yaak does not support older OS versions, due to Tauri requiring newer lib versions.

I'm running a CentOS Stream 9 based system, glibc 2.34

For context, Yaak does not support older OS versions, due to Tauri requiring newer lib versions.

In that case, I would like to request a Flatpak package. Would you mind if I packaged Yaak for Flatpak and submitted to the Flathub repository?

That would be great, if you'd like to take that on :)

I think my problem is the pc architecture because 2 of 3 the dists are for AMD, only redhat family is x64.

Here is my spec:

Linux XXX 6.11.0-100005-tuxedo #5tuxjammy2 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Sep 5 15:54:59 UTC 2024 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

And my glibc is checked by command ldd --version

On linux, amd64 is synonymous with x86_64, that shouldn't be a concern.
