Unable to install/move apps to default directory

[spsf64]

As it was reported in this thread: #209 (comment)

When I click the appimage, gealever prompts to unlock the app then it just freezes, both "launch" and "Move to the app menu" buttons are grayed out, nothing happens...
I just tried libreoffice 25.2.2.2 downloaded direct from their official site.

It was working fine with version 3.0.2, but with latest 3.1.0 and 3.1.1 the problem is back.

I'm looking into it

Can you please share the link to the AppImage file you are trying to install as well as your gearlever.log file from Menu > Open debug log?

I cannot reproduce your issue, thank you

I forgot to mention, using archlinux and aur package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gearlever

log: https://pastebin.com/9jyVare1

file link: https://appimages.libreitalia.org/LibreOffice-25.2.2.2.basic-x86_64.AppImage
libreoffice main site: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/appimage/

Thank you for this great project!

edit: I was checking the log, and noticed "Filesystem is not dwarfsck"? Also p7zip is used to extract the files, I think arch now uses 7zip, can this be the problem?

I think this is the same error as before, I thought my fix was used here but I was wrong. Added the workaround fix in again to the aur package, apologies.

7z avoids dangerous symlinks whereas p7zip just continues, but the error is raised and freezes the program if we don't return the stderr for logging.

@TuxDeluxe thanks! I just checked and it works!
@mijorus I think we can close this issue?!

Thanks for mentioning this. I'm looking into replacing p7zip with 7z

[mijorus]

@TuxDeluxe could you please point out the fix you made in order to use 7z?

Thank you

@mijorus I added a return_stderr=True to the end of the 7z command here: f04e3ef

@mijorus I added a return_stderr=True to the end of the 7z command here: f04e3ef

Please note that the next update will probably replace p7zip with the official 7z cli, thus replacing 7z with 7zz
