HyprSnipper v1.0.2

HyprSnipper v1.0.2

Date: 2025-11-02

This release focuses on stabilizing the AppImage packaging so users can run HyprSnipper without installing Python or Qt.

Highlights

• Reliable AppImage build using PyInstaller + appimagetool fallback (avoids flaky linuxdeploy python plugin)
• Bundled libpython3.13 and PySide6/Qt libraries inside the AppImage
• Fixed AppImage desktop/icon validation issues:
  • Desktop file is placed at AppDir root for appimagetool
  • Sanitized Categories to Graphics; for menu cleanliness
  • Top-level hyprsnipper.svg added, and optional 256x256 PNG + .DirIcon generated when ImageMagick is present
• Removed Qt TIFF plugin to prevent libtiff.so.5 runtime dependency problems

Notes

• AppStream metadata is not included for now to keep builds green; a refined file will be added in a future release once it validates cleanly with appstreamcli.
• You still need these host tools for full functionality: grim, slurp, wl-clipboard, and Hyprland's hyprctl.
• AppImage prerequisite: libfuse2
  • If the AppImage fails to launch with “dlopen(): error loading libfuse.so.2”, please install the FUSE 2 runtime — see README

Checksums

A SHA256 checksum is provided alongside the AppImage in the dist/ folder.
