Unofficial AppImage Directory
This repository exists to contribute to the AppImage ecosystem, with a special focus on supporting AM (AppImage Manager / Appman) users.
It aims to:
- Provide high-quality, unofficial AppImages for applications that lack native AppImage releases from their upstream developers.
- Fill distribution gaps by converting selected apps into AppImages.
- Host them here with signed verification files (BUILD_INFO.json + .asc) so users can easily download and trust the builds for use in AM/Appman.
Verifying the AppImage
All AppImages in this repository are built directly from the official source code releases and include a signed authenticity proof (manifest + GPG signature) to confirm they are unchanged and come from my trusted build process.
One-time setup (do this once)
Import the builder's public key from the repository root:
wget https://git.yourittech.support/yourittech.support/appimages/raw/branch/main/builder-pubkey.asc
gpg --import builder-pubkey.asc
Verify a downloaded file (e.g. Nextcloud-Talk-v2.1.1-x86_64.AppImage)
- Download these three files from the version folder (e.g.
/nextcloud_talk/v2.1.1/):
Nextcloud-Talk-v2.1.1-x86_64.AppImageBUILD_INFO-Nextcloud-Talk-v2.1.1.jsonBUILD_INFO-Nextcloud-Talk-v2.1.1.json.asc
- Check the AppImage integrity with SHA256:
sha256sum Nextcloud-Talk-v2.1.1-x86_64.AppImage
Compare the output to the value of appimage_sha256 inside the BUILD_INFO-Nextcloud-Talk-v2.1.1.json file.
- Verify the signed manifest (confirms the SHA256 and build info come from me):
gpg --verify BUILD_INFO-Nextcloud-Talk-v2.1.1.json.asc BUILD_INFO-Nextcloud-Talk-v2.1.1.json
Look for:
gpg: Good signature from "YourITtech.support" [...]
The warning 'This key is not certified with a trusted signature' is normal for a personal builder key and can be safely ignored; the important confirmation is the 'Good signature' line, which means the manifest file is authentic and unchanged from my signed build process.
