Tarminal v0.1.5

Tarminal 0.1.5

Added

• Added support for detecting AppImage files packaged inside tar archives.
• Added AppImage executable detection for files ending with:
  • .AppImage
  • .appimage
  • .APPIMAGE
• Added handling for AppImage files even when the archive does not preserve executable permissions.
• Added test coverage for AppImage detection inside tar archives without execute bits.

Fixed

• Fixed installs failing to auto-detect an executable when the tar archive contains only an AppImage file without executable permissions.
• Improved executable candidate selection so AppImage files are preferred over generic helper executables.
• Fixed release metadata versioning for 0.1.5.

Changed

• AppImage files inside supported tar formats are now treated as valid executable candidates during archive inspection.
• During install, detected AppImage files are made executable using the existing executable permission repair step.
• Updated package metadata from 0.1.4 to 0.1.5.

Notes

• This release supports AppImages when they are packaged inside supported tar archive formats such as .tar, .tar.xz, .tar.gz, and .tar.bz2.
• Direct installation of standalone .AppImage files is not part of this release.
• AppImages that require FUSE or other host runtime dependencies may still depend on the user’s system environment at launch time.
