Fedora / OpenSUSE (COPR)
Quick install script
Pre-built binaries
Homebrew (tap)
The official COPR repository is the recommended method for RPM-based distributions. It integrates with your package manager and keeps the tool updated automatically.sudo dnf copr enable fptbb/fp-appimage-updater
sudo dnf install fp-appimage-updater
fp-appimage-updater is available on your PATH and managed by dnf. The install script works on any Linux distribution, including immutable and atomic systems. By default it installs to ~/.local/bin/ and sets up a systemd user timer for background updates.In plain terms, the script does three things:
- puts the binary on your
PATH
- creates the user timer if you allow background updates
- leaves your recipes, state, and AppImages in your home directory
curl -sL fau.fpt.icu/i | bash
curl -sL fau.fpt.icu/i | bash -s -- --no-systemd
/usr/bin/ and /usr/lib/systemd/system/ (requires root, rejected on strictly immutable systems):curl -sL fau.fpt.icu/i | sudo bash -s -- --system
curl -sL fau.fpt.icu/i | bash -s -- --uninstall
The uninstall option leaves your AppImage binaries and configuration files in ~/.config/fp-appimage-updater/ intact.
Download the latest compiled binary for your architecture directly from the releases page:https://gitlab.com/fpsys/fp-appimage-updater/-/releasesDrop it into your preferred binary directory and make it executable:chmod +x fp-appimage-updater
mv fp-appimage-updater ~/.local/bin/
fp-appimage-updater self-update to upgrade to the latest release at any time. If you prefer Homebrew, you can install the Linux binary from the GitLab-hosted tap:brew tap fpsys/tap https://gitlab.com/fpsys/homebrew-tap.git
brew install fp-appimage-updater
For a standard user-wide install, sudo is never required. The binary and all configuration live entirely in your home directory under ~/.local/ and ~/.config/.
