XnConvert fails to launch [Linux AppImage]

Post by mtddct »

The AppImage fails to launch. When launched from the command-line the following output is printed and the process hangs until forcibly closed.

Code: Select all

./XnConvert.glibc2.34-x86_64.AppImage

I recall trying the .deb as well earlier and it failed in a similar way. Flatpak does work, with some bugs (ex. "Delete original" does not remove the original when the source/destination is in the home directory that is on a ext4 partition but does work on a NTFS formatted drive).

ok, XnConvert will be soon built with Qt6. As a workaround you can use

Code: Select all

QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb ./XnConvert.glibc2.34-x86_64.AppImage
