Etcher: Can't run Etcher appimage on kubuntu 16.10

Created on 4 May 2017  路  2Comments  路  Source: balena-io/etcher

  • Etcher version: 1.0.0-rc5
  • Operating system and architecture: Kubuntu 16.10, amd64
  • Do you see any meaningful error information on DevTools? N/A
    I get the error ./Etcher-1.0.0-rc.5-linux-x86.AppImage: error while loading shared libraries: libfuse.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory when I try to run the downloaded image.
    After doing a strace I seed that it isn't looking for the place where libfuse2 is installed.
    Since ubuntu trusty libfuse2 is installed at:
- /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libfuse.so.2

My fault, after doing an strace I saw that I downloaded the x86 version, and I am on a 64bit system. A warning when launching the issue would have been nicer, but still my fault
