[Scilab-Dev] Appimage or Flatpak for Scilab

[Clément David]

Hi Martin,

That's probably a repack of your scilab binary so not official :) .

After some reading on AppImage it is really similar to our current tar.gz executable version so
after our minimal platform upgrade we might switch to it.

Could you file a bug with detailed description of your need (basically why the current executable
version is not suitable for you and AppImage is much better) ?

Thanks,
