29The script assumes you have built all of the sigrok subprojects and
30installed them into $HOME/sr (e.g. via the sigrok-cross-linux script).
31
32The AppImages are tested to build fine on Ubuntu 14.04 (32bit and 64bit).
33These older distros are used for the build so that the generated AppImages
34can run on as many different systems as possible.
