Describe the bug

I click on the .deb package to install 3.0.0-alpha-2 and the package manager says there was an error installing. So I fired up terminal and used dpkg. I got the following:

aknight2015@debian:~/Downloads$ sudo dpkg -i appimagelauncher_3.0.0-alpha-2-gha218.0146f5c_amd64.deb [sudo] password for aknight2015: (Reading database ... 517667 files and directories currently installed.)

The icon shows up in the settings menu on my, forgive the term, start menu. However, when I try and run the settings application it says I don't have permission to run it.

Expected behavior

I expected the program to install properly.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Download the 3.0.0-alpha-2.deb release
  2. Double click the deb file
  3. Hit install on the package manager
  4. Exit with error
  5. Fire up good 'ol terminal.
  6. Use sudo dpkg -i to try and install it manually.
  7. Watch as the above output is generated
  8. Try to start the app via the menu
  9. Get an error that I don't have permission to run it.
