Question: Can We Make A Single AppImage to Work on all CPU? (same OS)

Creating AppImages
1

When packaging the software into an AppImage, can we so something like:

1. Execute AppImage
1.1 identify_cpu.sh / init script to identify the CPU architeture
1.2 run software binary for that CPU architecture inside AppImage container

The original path was to compile one AppImage for each architecture. It’s not hard but rather seeing the above as quite a good value.

Go dev here. Just curious. :laughing:

Unfortunately no, because https://icculus.org/fatelf/ is not in the mainline kernel.

noted. Thank you. ^^

I will stick to the multi arch build for the time being.
