  "textContent": "The people at Portable Linux Apps have been making an AppImage of Pale Moon available since last July, I just stumbled across it today: https://github.com/Portable-Linux-Apps/ ... n-AppImage\n\nThey claim they don't change anything from the official binary except to AppImage-fy it. Here's the script they use to create the AppImage:\n\nCODE:\n\n\n    #!/bin/shset -exexport ARCH=$(uname -m)APPIMAGETOOL=\"https://github.com/pkgforge-dev/appimagetool-uruntime/releases/download/continuous/appimagetool-$ARCH.AppImage\"UPINFO=\"gh-releases-zsync|$(echo $GITHUB_REPOSITORY | tr '/' '|')|latest|*$ARCH.AppImage.zsync\"export URUNTIME_PRELOAD=1 # really needed hereDESKTOP=\"https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/Pale-Moon/raw/branch/master/palemoon/branding/official/palemoon.desktop\"ICON=\"https://repo.palemoon.org/MoonchildProductions/Pale-Moon/raw/branch/master/palemoon/branding/official/default256.png\"tarball_url=https://rm-us.palemoon.org/release/$(wget https://www.palemoon.org/download.shtml -O - \\| sed 's/[()\",{}]/ /g; s/ /\\n/g' | grep -i \"linux-$ARCH-.*.tar.xz\" | grep -vi \"gtk2\" | head -1)export VERSION=$(echo \"$tarball_url\" | awk -F'/' '{print $NF; exit}' \\| awk -F'-' '{print $2}' | sed 's|.linux.*||')echo \"$VERSION\" > ~/versionwget \"$tarball_url\" -O ./package.tar.xztar xvf ./package.tar.xzrm -f ./package.tar.xzmv -v ./palemoon ./AppDir && (cd ./AppDirwget \"$ICON\" -O ./palemoon.pngwget \"$ICON\" -O ./.DirIconwget \"$DESKTOP\" -O ./palemoon.desktopcat > ./AppRun <<- 'KEK'#!/bin/shCURRENTDIR=\"$(cd \"${0%/*}\" && echo \"$PWD\")\"export PATH=\"${CURRENTDIR}:${PATH}\"export MOZ_LEGACY_PROFILES=1 # Prevent per installation profilesexport MOZ_APP_LAUNCHER=\"${APPIMAGE}\" # Allows setting as default browserexec \"${CURRENTDIR}/palemoon\" \"$@\"KEKchmod +x ./AppRun# disable automatic updatesmkdir -p ./distributioncat >> ./distribution/policies.json <<- 'KEK'{ \"policies\": { \"DisableAppUpdate\": true, \"AppAutoUpdate\": false, \"BackgroundAppUpdate\": false }}KEK)wget \"$APPIMAGETOOL\" -O ./appimagetoolchmod +x ./appimagetool./appimagetool -n -u \"$UPINFO\" ./AppDir\n\nCould be useful to someone I guess.\n\n* * *",
