Wondering about best practices for managing and auto-updating appimages. Have to use a few and Discover appstore (Kubuntu) does not support them, so I’ve been meaning to setup a way to auto-update them. Currently have them living in ~/appimage directory.
Wouldn’t mind basically adding to a command or cron for something like apt-get get upgrade && flatpak update && something-appimage

appimages are programs i want on a specific version. they do not get updated.
Cool, I’ve got that part covered.
Oof
You might want software like this: https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher
Thanks, is pretty nice. Part I’m still unclear on is how to auto-update all appimages, as opposed to individual selection. Would ideally add to a basic script to update appimages after regular package manager. See this issue. I do see
ail-cliis used, so learning more about how to use it. See this issue on documentationMy bad, mixed it up with this: https://github.com/mijorus/gearlever
This has a “check for updates” function, I’ve never bothered using it though.
Cool, both are nice tools!

iirc topgrade has support for AM, so you can do all at once with AM included.
Thanks!
Bazzite theorically auto updates but Im not sure it does for me, so I just start the system updater that updates, system, flatpaks, brew etc from time to time when I plan to reboot anyway.
Bazzite has GearLever built in for this.
Also, I think they update using topgrade, which doesn’t support gearlever afaik. I always manually have to update in gearlever.
Thanks
I use Gearlever
Thanks
