IMPORTANT note for Linux users

PrusaSlicer now depends on WebKit library, which greatly complicates its distribution. Latest Linux distributions (such as Ubuntu 24.04, Fedora 40) ship with newer version of WebKit than older (but still supported) distros. Bundling WebKit into the AppImage is difficult because it leads to various issues with its dependencies. So far we did not manage to create an AppImage that would reliably run on all relevant distros.

We now provide two separate AppImages. One depends on the old WebKit, the other one is built on Ubuntu 24.04 and links to the new WebKit. If you run Ubuntu 24.04, Fedora 40 or another very recent distribution, you should download the "Ubuntu-24-04" AppImage. The other one will not work for you.

To keep the confusion to a minumum, we do not provide the tarballs anymore, just the two AppImages. They are able to extract themselves when run with --appimage-extract command line parameter.
