Describe the bug When running the AppImage thru AppImageLauncher, it fails with this error:

ERROR: appimage_register_in_system : Icon field contains path 

Leapp Version Leapp-0.18.1.AppImage (when clicking on Leapp/About, nothing happens)

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install AppImageLauncher (instructions on https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher/wiki)
  2. Run Leapp (from the command line, otherwise you may not be able to see the error)
  3. When the AppImageLauncher integration dialog opens, select "integrate and run"
  4. See error

Expected behavior LeApp should start normally, and AppImageLauncher should make it available in the desktop menu.

Screenshots N/A

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Linux
  • OS Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
  • Leapp Version 0.18.1

Additional context Other AppImage applications have this error. You can find a small discussion about it here: https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher/issues/494

I haven't had the time to investigate the issue further, but I may in the coming days.

Hi @albx79, thank you for reporting! This is an interesting feature but - at the moment - it is not one of our top priorities. If you can further investigate this feature to find the root cause, feel free to propose a solution through a PR.
