Tried this on TWO machines (Desktop & laptop). Both running same Linux distro

[benkuper]

Have you tried installing libcurl, as the error message seems to point out ?

Which would you propose to add

I used zypper se curl to search for this. I see that there's no candidate that matches the missing file libcurl-gnutls. Also, I thought that an AppImage was self contained and included all the dependencies, integrated into an executable file, so it could run on ANY distribution?

[benkuper]

libcurl4 would be a good candidate

https://forums.opensuse.org/t/error-while-loading-shared-libraries-libcurl-gnutls-so-4/122383/10 ? maybe
you can look for generic missing libcurl-gnutls in OpenSuse I think, this is the first google search result.

I'm experiencing the same issue on fedora 40. I have installed: libcurl libcurl-devel libcurl-minimal which are all the available versions over dnf.

[linuxnow]

Same in fedora 41.
$ ./Chataigne-linux-x64-bleedingedge.AppImage
Chataigne: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl-gnutls.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Making the soft link to libcurl-gnutls.so.4 does not help either.:
Chataigne: /lib64/libcurl-gnutls.so.4: no version information available (required by Chataigne)
Chataigne: /tmp/.mount_Chatai0vlMw5/usr/lib/libssl.so.3: version `OPENSSL_3.2.0' not found (required by /lib64/libcurl-gnutls.so.4)

What about installing this ? https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/openssl/openssl/fedora-41.html

[NohWayJose]

@benkuper please do you have an answer to my earlier question about AppImages . I thought they were self contained, so they had everything they needed to run, in the AppImage, and have no outside dependencies?

[benkuper]

Yes but it seems that mine is missing some stuff. I'm not working on Linux at all, so other people in the community are taking care of this. You can totally work it out and propose a PR to improve support for linux (and that would be greatly appreciated !)

[linuxnow]

Just a scene setting observation: I am on OpenSuse Linux, Tumbleweed (ie CI, continuous integration). I like to run up-to-date apps and am fine if there are rough patches where something doesn't work or work well for a bit because even though it's frustrating it usually isn't a serious problem and it gets fixed in the next CI update or two.

This Darktable problem is a real pain. I used to reluctantly use AfterShot Pro3 until they decided to use some encryption library and I (and others) couldn't find a work-around. I basically stopped taking photos! Since ASP3 disappeared, I found DarkTable and despite the slightly different user experience and quite steep learning curve, have come to appreciate it. The trouble is, whatever causes this problem only appeared after I bought my new Canon R6 mk2, when I really started to use DarkTable for bulk processing.

My system is I suspect a configuration basket case, as I am a UX designer not a Linux Admin and I have the memory of a goldfish. I struggle to recall how to achieve some esoteric and subtle, version sensitive config magic a year or so after muddling my way through in the first place, so who knows where the problem is. One thing I do know is that applications almost never crashed before, let alone crash the OS. The memory test seems to indicate this isn't a hardware memory issue.

I'm stumped and I'm wondering whether to buy a massive hard drive, transfer everything off the existing hard drives with their exotic FSs (BTRFS, XFS, EXT4), do a ground up OS install and storage rationalisation and then try DarkTable from there. It's drastic but I have nowhere else to go unless someone can identify the problem
