Gnome-Calculator-AppImage 🐧

• Latest Stable Release

---

AppImage made using sharun, which makes it extremely easy to turn any binary into a portable package without using containers or similar tricks.

This AppImage bundles everything and should work on any linux distro, even on musl based ones.

It is possible that this appimage may fail to work with appimagelauncher, I recommend these alternatives instead:

• AM am -i gnome-calculator or appman -i gnome-calculator

• dbin dbin install gnome-calculator.appimage

• soar soar install gnome-calculator

This appimage works without fuse2 as it can use fuse3 instead, it can also work without fuse at all thanks to the uruntime

raison d'être

Known quirks

• Search-provider integration works only on Gnome (same as upstream) & it depends on:
  • the desktop file being present (which AppImage managers like soar & am already take care of).
    Desktop file needs to be named org.gnome.Calculator.desktop for it to work.
    The only exception is the detection for desktop file gnome-calculator-AM.desktop in local directories, which is added as a support for am AppImage manager.
  • the XDG_DATA_DIRS variable having the XDG_DATA_HOME in path, which the AppImage will detect if not present + warn about & suggest the solution.
  • This operation won't be performed if search integration files already exist in /usr/share/ or /usr/local/share/, as it's assumed that the packager and/or system-administrator already handled that integration to the system. Modifying XDG_DATA_DIRS in that case is not needed.
• If you use AppImage portable folders feature, you didn't manually integrate search-provider to the system & you want to use the search-provider functionality, than only use portable appimage-filename.config folder to make the functionality work.
  • If you want to clean $HOME after uninstallation, besides regular application dotfiles, you also need to remove the files below, which are used for search-provider integration:
    • ${XDG_DATA_HOME}/gnome-shell/search-providers/org.gnome.Calculator-search-provider.ini
    • ${XDG_DATA_HOME}/dbus-1/services/org.gnome.Calculator.SearchProvider.service
