This makes the build product run on none -but the latest distributions. A much better choice would be to build e.g., -on Debian oldstable, CentOS 6, or Ubuntu Trusty or earlier. -Examples for building bleeding-edge Qt4 and Qt5 applications on such mature -build systems can be found at -https://github.com/probonopd/AppImages/blob/master/recipes - -The script has been tested on Ubuntu 16.04 but is assumed -to also run on Debian unstable with no or minor changes. However, it is -strongly suggested to build and package the AppImage on a significantly -older distribution as mentioned above for any productive use. +The script assumes you have built all of the sigrok subprojects and +installed them into $HOME/sr (e.g. via the sigrok-cross-linux script). + +The AppImages are tested to build fine on Ubuntu 14.04 (32bit and 64bit). +These older distros are used for the build so that the generated AppImages +can run on as many different systems as possible.
