Install on Linux
Vegha ships for Linux as a self-contained AppImage that runs on any reasonably current 64-bit distribution — Ubuntu 22.04+, Fedora 38+, Arch, and others.
Install the AppImage
Section titled “Install the AppImage”-
Download
Vegha-linux-x64.AppImage. -
Make it executable:
Terminal window chmod +x Vegha-linux-x64.AppImage -
Run it:
Terminal window ./Vegha-linux-x64.AppImage
That’s it — the AppImage bundles the .NET runtime and every dependency, so nothing else needs to be installed.
Optional: integrate it into your desktop
Section titled “Optional: integrate it into your desktop”To get a menu entry and icon, move the AppImage somewhere stable and let your desktop pick it up, or use a tool like AppImageLauncher:
mkdir -p ~/.local/binmv Vegha-linux-x64.AppImage ~/.local/bin/Vegha.AppImageDependencies
Section titled “Dependencies”The AppImage is self-contained, but a desktop environment must provide the usual
graphical libraries (FUSE for AppImage mounting, libfontconfig, GTK). These are present
on any standard desktop install. On a minimal or headless system you may need:
# Debian / Ubuntusudo apt install libfuse2 libfontconfig1Where Vegha keeps its data
Section titled “Where Vegha keeps its data”| Data | Location |
|---|---|
| Settings | ~/.config/Vegha |
| Your collections | Wherever you choose — a normal folder on disk |
| OAuth2 tokens & secrets | The Secret Service API (GNOME Keyring / KWallet) |
Updates
Section titled “Updates”The Linux AppImage does not self-update. To upgrade, download the latest
Vegha-linux-x64.AppImage from the
releases page and replace the old
file. Your settings and collections are untouched.
