@probonopd seems like you need to (re)install your libnss3 package like this:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libnss3

Check out this thread for more info adieuadieu/serverless-chrome#53. Let us know if something helps.

Thank you very much, this works indeed. But ideally one wouldn't need to install things to run an AppImage.

Is there any way to get around this? Bundling libnss3 doesn't seem to be without its own problems unfortunately.

[negamaxi]

@probonopd there is an issue opened in electron-builder repo that seems to be related. I'll keep my eye on it.

Anyway, could you remove your libnss3 package again and install a deb package? Just to be confident that at least one option works for your scenario.

[probonopd]

sudo apt-get install libnss3 does work for me.

[negamaxi]

@probonopd I meant to install a Pathephone deb package without libnss3 installed in your system.

@negamaxi I am not interested in deb packages; all I ever use is AppImages :-)
