There are some buglets. I call them "buglets" because they are small, not show-stoppers:

  1. Appi, the AppImage Installer, when do an update, reports finding more than one .AppImage file online, when in fact there is only one.
  2. I see also DBgate update is not finding all .AppImage choices.
  3. "pkg" icon now launches a window to choose one of the three package managers. In a container, it is supposed to only offer PKGget.
  4. /home/chromium icon is small in ROX.

I haven't tested that "pkg" works in the new way when do an update. "update" icon; 5.2 to 5.2.1 is only 3.6MB.

Feedback welcome on the forum:
