Now there is a Flatpak available here https://flathub.org/apps/net.sourceforge.m64py.M64Py .

I'm not too fond of AppImage, it is often hit or miss, depending on the glibc that is used at build time, etc. and I always have the latest. It would not be much different than some Linux binaries tarball, also it may or may not work. Plain tarball would have the advantage that the user can try other plugins manually installed, like a portable archive for Linux. Maybe I will build something like that with PyInstaller.

You fix this by bundling glibc itself into the AppImage, example

Maybe I will build something like that with PyInstaller.

You can also use that very method to make an AppImage, although that one the build has been failing for a while because it seems the pip package itself broke 😅
