Xonotic AppImage-builder Recipe

AppImageBuilder.yml

# The purpose here is to play Xonotic on older OS with glibc < 2.29
#
# The resulting AppImage doesn't work BUT
# you can extract the AppImage using
# `./Xonotic-0.8.5-x86_64.AppImage  --appimage-extract`
# and execute `./squashfs-root/AppRun` to play the game
#
# There are some tweaks to file modes and copying over symlinks to ensure that
# the file is executable on other systems where the uid is different.
#
# The Xonotic zip must be extracted into a directory called `Xonotic`
#
# The excludes section needs more work
# Also the MacOS and Windows bits need to be removed
#
