[Linux] create a flatpak on Flathub

[skierpage]

I've never run an AppImage and don't know how to sandbox one with firejail or bubble wrap.

You can probably copy most of the setup from PCSX2's code at https://github.com/flathub/net.pcsx2.PCSX2 , Flathub will even build it for you.

Sounds like this is something that can be done by a third party anyway, since there's no hard requirement for the main app to support flatpak? Anyone could do it that is. Feel free to submit a pull request to them to add the module?

That is even easier than flatpack you sugested

1. download PCSX-Redux for linux to e.g. /home/test directory

2. open terminal and
   ~/home$ cd /test

3. unzip file
   ~/test$ unzip PCSX-Redux-5cfaabe8-linux-x86_64.zip

4. make AppImage file executable
   ~/test$ chmod +x PCSX-Redux-HEAD-x86_64.AppImage

5. run emulator with firejail
   ~/test$ firejail --noprofile ./PCSX-Redux-HEAD-x86_64.AppImage

Thats all. Regards.

Thanks for the firejail tip 👍, it should be in the docs. Alas the AppImage crashes for me, issue #714.
