Dear GpgFrontend Team,

Thank you for your work on this amazing project!

I am currently using Tails OS, which is a security-hardened and privacy-focused Linux distribution. Unfortunately, your latest Qt6 AppImage build (GpgFrontend-2.1.8-qt6) requires libOpenGL.so.0, which is not available on Tails for security reasons.

Would it be possible for you to provide a Qt6-based AppImage without OpenGL dependency, or with software rendering enabled (e.g., Qt's offscreen platform plugin)?

Such a build would help many users in secure environments to use GpgFrontend without compromising system safety.

Thank you once again for this great tool!

Warm regards,
vista (Tails OS user & security researcher)
