Describe the bug
ail-cli: does not automatically chmod +x the appimage file after moving it
Expected behavior
The moved appimage to be made executable. This expectation is a reasonable one, since AppimageLauncher has just made a .desktop file and must ensure that the file created is actually going to work. If AIL does not also auto chmod +x the appimage file, then that renders the installed application's .desktop file as broken. And it will fail to launch.
Since the whole goal of AIL program is to make easy and simle installation of appimage files. It should not assume that the input file was downloaded as being executable. Since it very well may not be.
To Reproduce
ail-cli integrate Olive-4cb02b67-x86_64.AppImage- try to open the new 'Olive'
.desktopfile. Nothing happens - Notice that the installed appimage file is not executable, even after it has been moved to the install location by
ail-cliprogram chmod +xthe installed appimage file- Try to open via installed
.desktopfile again
