Appimagelauncher

I tried to install Appimagelauncher from AUR but none of the options worked. Can someone help with this issue?

I tried to use the variant from AUR "aur / appimagelauncher-git r1068.7cb4d70-1"
And this is what I got in the Console as a result:
--------------------
"CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "Unix Makefiles".  CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set.  You probably need to select a different build tool.
CMake Error: CMAKE_C_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage
CMake Error: CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER not set, after EnableLanguage
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "/tmp/yaourt-tmp-sergio/aur-appimagelauncher-git/src/appimagelauncher/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
-------------------

This is what was in the log file:
"The system is: Linux - 5.8.10-artix1-1 - x86_64"

You might not have "cmake" and/or "gcc" installed or the packages are broken.


Try this:

Code: [Select]
pacman -S gcc cmake

Another option would be install "base-devel" if you are going to build more packages from AUR.

Code: [Select]
pacman -S base-devel

I just tried pakku -S appimagelauncher and it built fine here, although I do have various build stuff installed already for other things.
But it didn't work exactly, I got an appimage from here:
https://github.com/karjonas/Linedancer/releases/tag/appimage
$ AppImageLauncher ./Linedancer-e6ea833-x86_64.AppImage
sh: systemctl: command not found
sh: systemctl: command not found
sh: systemctl: command not found
sh: systemctl: command not found
It gave this error message in a box after selecting Run once:
Failed to register AppImage in AppImageLauncherFS: error while trying to start appimagelauncherfs.service

The package contains these files but there seem to be no scripts for other inits:
appimagelauncher /usr/lib/systemd/user/appimagelauncherd.service
appimagelauncher /usr/lib/systemd/user/appimagelauncherfs.service

(Later edit to avoid bumping the solved topic: You don't need to install appimages anyway, just make executable and run them, chmod a+x and ./)
