AppImage update information missing
I would like the Image to contain information where to check for updates to retrieve them automagically according to the standard of the already provided AppImage format.
- AppImage works fine (tested on Debian and NixOS)
- Update information in the App itself is wrong, version 4.47.1 does not inform about the newer version
- Update is manual although the format would allow for easier automation, from external with e.g. AppImageUpdate or even by the App itself.
I checked with (cli for the mentioned AppImageUpdate) appimageupdatetool --describe ./BitBox-4.47.1-x86_64.AppImage (knowing 4.47.2 is available):
Parsing file: ~/Downloads/BitBox-4.47.1-x86_64.AppImage
AppImage type: 2
Raw update information: <empty>
Update information invalid: | not found
Failed to parse AppImage. See above for more information
Proposed fix: provide meta information for the AppImage to enable finding updates.
