OrcaSlicer Appimage won't open

Describe the bug Appimage will not load although I have marked properties with 'allow executing'

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Download Appimage on Fedora 37
Click on Appimage and select run once or integrate and run
Application does not open

Expected behavior Expect the Appimage to open BambuStudio like any of the other Appimages on this system do (including PrusaSlicer)

Desktop (please complete the following information): Fully updated Fedora 37 (wayland) on Dell laptop

This is odd since I don't see any other issues related to the actual appimage not opening. Sometimes an appimage fails to open due to a missing dependency. Is there another package I need to add to get this to work?

I was able to run the AppImage on Fedora 37 by making it executable and running it from the command line, however, it crashes shortly afterwards (same as #204). It's fairly clear that it was built for Ubuntu / Debian, although AppImage itself is a portable format. I'm failing to build from source on Fedora myself.

Should be portable yet it's not. Not running on Gentoo either with the following error:

$ ./OrcaSlicer_ubu64.AppImage 
/tmp/.mount_OrcaSlX5H07L/bin/orca-slicer: symbol lookup error: /tmp/.mount_OrcaSlX5H07L/bin/orca-slicer: undefined symbol: gdk_wayland_window_get_wl_surface

I assume there's a hard dependency on wayland?

Same here and i feel stupid because i simply can't get it to compile my self... BambuLab/OrcaSlicer is the first where i have these Problems :( They won't wegen work with wine...

Just tried 1.8.0 beta and it opened and works fine on Fedora 38.

Same here. Is this issue still valid ? I mean, as there is no comments I would consider a "wont fix issue".

installing webkit2gtk4.0 fixed things for me on nobara 39

FYI to any of the Fedora or other distro folks having difficulty with launching Orca app image, go ahead and try last night's Jan 22 v2.0.0 dev image from the nightly builds-- WORKS FANTASTIC!!!
