How long until RPM / DEB option for Linux?

Hi, i have the appimage on Fedora but it won’t start. Do I need to install FUSE or something like that? I’d rather wait for the RPM if that’s close. Love the app on my Mac so far. Really well done.

Hi! Thanks for the kind words! :blush:

The AppImage needs FUSE to run. You can try:

sudo dnf install fuse fuse-libs

This command installs the necessary FUSE packages, enabling AppImages to function correctly. After installation, you might need to add your user to the ‘fuse’ group to authorize FUSE usage:

sudo groupadd fuse
sudo usermod -a -G fuse $(whoami)

After running these commands, log out and log back in for the changes to take effect.

We’re also working on an RPM package for Fedora.

I’ll send it to you soon, even if it’s not fully production-ready yet.

Thanks for your patience!

You can download an RPM package we’ve tested on Fedora 41.

https://downloads.bdrive.com/rclone_view/linux/rclone_view-0.2.30+1-linux.rpm

While it has some issues with the tray menu, it’s functional.

Specifically, the tray icon, which should appear for user interaction upon launching the app, doesn’t display.

We’re actively working to resolve this issue and will release both RPM and DEB packages on our homepage once fixed.

Thank you for your patience.

Overall installed easily on Fedora 41. I haven’t done too much yet but it is working nicely.
