Chromium appimage missing dependencies
by JASlinux from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6KVN5)
Can anyone explain this:
OS tend to have a 'last version' of a browser that will work without additional dependencies.
Despite the fact everyone will tell you to upgrade the OS, say you're in an old distro & the last version of Chrome to work is 90.
In my distro every Chromium-based (90 equivalent) browser will work, but not the Chromium appimage (looking for GLIB 2.27, ..8, ..9 for a start).
How are distro-independent app packages supposed to come together still requiring basic dependencies the commercial products do not need?
