Please request a binary rebuild upstream for proper fix.

I tried to run Simple Note on Manjaro PLASMA last version and it won't open. The icon move a bit and nothing open... How can Help you fix this ?

I'm on garuda kde, why simplenote won't start, it doesn't matter if i click on taskbar icon or from start menu, one of ten times it start...

How can i fix it?

Please don't keep the included Electron runtime. Use an Arch repo electron package as dependency instead.

taskbar icon is misssing.

Adding complexity and dependencies in order to support non-official architectures is not what I would expect in the AUR. This would maybe fit better in some Arch derivatives repo supporting these architectures. The deb packages are adequate for a x86_64 bin package.

@Kewl Hmm... it appears that fuse is required. So yes, it would add a dependency. Having said that, I'm not sure whether that's fuse2 or fuse3.

@Feakster doesn't ./$_appimage --appimage-extract introduce more dependencies?

Hi @Kewl & @jonathon,

This would be my suggestions for an AppImage-based PKGBUILD:

### Prepare ###
prepare() {
    ## Change Directory ##
    cd "$srcdir"

    ## Mark AppImage as Executable ##
    chmod a+x $_appimage

    ## Extract AppImage into squashfs-root Directory ##
    ./$_appimage --appimage-extract

    ## Remove Unnecessary Files ##
    rm squashfs-root/{.DirIcon,AppRun,$_pkgname.png}

    ## Fix Permissions ##
    find squashfs-root -type d -exec chmod 0755 {} \;
    find squashfs-root -type f -name '*.so' -exec chmod 0755 {} \;

    ## Modify Desktop File ##
    sed -i \
    -e "s|^Exec=.*|Exec=/usr/bin/${_pkgname}|" \
    -e '/^TryExec=.*/d' \
    -e '/^X-AppImage-Version=.*/d' \
    squashfs-root/${_pkgname}.desktop
    echo "TryExec=/opt/${_pkgname}/${_pkgname}" >> squashfs-root/${_pkgname}.desktop
}

### Package ###
package() {
    ## Move AppImage Contents to /opt/$_pkgname ##
    install -dm0755 "$pkgdir"/opt/$_pkgname
    cp -RT "$srcdir"/squashfs-root "$pkgdir"/opt/$_pkgname

    ## SUID Sandbox ##
    chmod 4755 "$pkgdir"/opt/$_pkgname/chrome-sandbox

    ## Executable Binary ##
    install -dm0755 "$pkgdir"/usr/bin
    ln -fs \
    /opt/$_pkgname/$_pkgname \
    "$pkgdir"/usr/bin/$_pkgname

    ## Install Icons ##
    for SIZE in 16 32 48 64 128 256 512 1024
    do
        install -dm0755 "$pkgdir"/usr/share/icons/hicolor/${SIZE}x${SIZE}/apps
        ln -fs \
        /opt/$_pkgname/usr/share/icons/hicolor/${SIZE}x${SIZE}/apps/${_pkgname}.png \
        "$pkgdir"/usr/share/icons/hicolor/${SIZE}x${SIZE}/apps/${_pkgname}.png
    done

    ## Desktop Icon ##
    install -dm0755 "$pkgdir"/usr/share/applications
    ln -fs \
    /opt/$_pkgname/${_pkgname}.desktop \
    "$pkgdir"/usr/share/applications/${_pkgname}.desktop

    ## Licenses ##
    install -dm0755 "$pkgdir"/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname
    ln -fs \
    /opt/$_pkgname/LICENSE.electron.txt \
    "$pkgdir"/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE.electron.txt
    ln -fs \
    /opt/$_pkgname/LICENSES.chromium.html \
    "$pkgdir"/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSES.chromium.html
}

It could be simplified further. I'm not sure the ## Remove Unnecessary Files ## & ## Fix Permissions ## steps are necessary.

Apologies for pestering. A trusted user has marked the ARM version of the package I maintain for deletion because it doesn't support x86_64 architectures.

@jonathon: I see, you can check the much more complicated PKGBUILD handling the AppImage ARM package in the AUR. I would prefer to keep it simple and support Arch compatible architectures. Then if you have a simple generic PKGBUILD supporting more binaries, you can share it, why not.
