I am using Linux Mint v22 and when I attempt to run the ".AppImage" file, it crashes with the following errors:

I have the same problem on LM22 and sent this report to the developer many weeks ago but I haven't got any answer

This happens because libgdiplus in appimage has missing symlinks.
I added and recompiled appimage with libgdiplus symlinks added.
Now it works. I don't know why Andrev didn't add those links, who knows?
Download appimage linked below, I have tried with linuxmint_22 live iso.

Hello.

Please, could you provide a script to create this appimage? We can integrate it into our build process and provide Mint v22 appimage package in future.
Thanks in advanced!

Best regards, Andrey Ivashov.

I did extract content of original smath appimage from terminal via --appimage-extract argument.
Added libgif.so and symlinks for libgdiplus.
Mono library replacement shouldn't be necessary, only for just in case.

Andrey, you can take my appimage and extract its content.
Only smath file updates should be enough for new appimage creation.

Regards

Generally libgdiplus library is strictly depended on glibc version of system.
Usually it is creating the havoc, because of it also mono libraries too.

What do you mean by fix?
The file I have uploaded should already works for linuxmint 22.

I don't know if it is only on my pc but,
New version doesn't work on linux.
When any plugin is installed,
SMath crashes when reopened.
Going to inspect further...

There was some missing files for /usr/lib/mono and libgdiplus.so.
This should work now, please check it and report.

This version even works with ubuntu-24.04 along linuxmint-22.
I only added export MONO_WINFORMS_XIM_STYLE=disabled before exec mono.
It prevents a stupid mono bug keeping applications crash at start.
Change is applied to smath_launcher in appimage.

For the lacking of button texts, it is probably mono error.
Possibly I can't do anything about that.
