So sad to hear this. I've never been able to get AppImages, Flatpaks et
al to work on my Debian 11 system. And the idea of a whole huge AppImage
just for one pretty small application like Lux just seems like way overkill.
Oh, well.

Dear all!
So far, I've been offering debian packages for lux, specifically built
for several distros and versions. This took quite some time, so I was
on the look-out for an alternative. For now, I've settled on AppImage
<https://appimage.org/> - building the bundle was reasonably painless,
and the resulting single-file artifact runs on the linux installations
I have floating about, namely debian 11 and 12, and ubuntu 22.04 and
23.04. I built the artifact on the debian 11 system, because the
recommendation is to build rather on an older system - I stopped
myself from installing something even older just for the purpose.
The AppImage 'promise' is that an AppImage should run on a wide
variety of distros, so I'd be curious to hear from users of other
linux distros whether they can in fact run this one! Running an
AppImage is simple:
* Download it
* set the execute permission
* run it like any other executable
You can download my lux AppImage from here
<https://bitbucket.org/kfj/pv/downloads/lux-1.1.6-x86_64.AppImage>.
Please note that this is for AMD/intel 64 bit systems only! It's built
from lux master, which is slightly ahead of 1.1.6 proper.
If you're interested in the build process, it's script-driven, and the
relevant build script is in the scripts folder off the pv repo's root,
requiring only two helper programs and one additional file (the AppRun
script, needed here to provide the font file path at run-time).
