UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Â Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
Hi!
I'm just reporting what might be an installation issue, with Beta 27. (Yes, I relented and tried a beta. 🙂
This is on Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon. APP Beta 27 downloaded and installed ok, and I am kicking the tires. But...I just noticed that there are some broken links that seem odd. [Screen shot attached]
My laptop is a new P16 Gen2, and it supports two NVMe's, so I installed the OS on one, and /home on the other. Beta 27 is the first APP install on this machine, so whatever you see, came from that install.
APP is working ok when executed directly in my ~/opt/AstroPixelProcessor directory (although it would be nice if it showed up on a menu).
However, I just noticed that ~/usr/local/bin and ~/usr/share/applications contain broken links to APP, as they are not pointing to APP's actual location.
Just FYI...

Hi Bob, @devonshire
Beta27 had an issue and we have removed it completely. Can you test with beta28 if all is okay or not? We test ourselves in Linux Mint 20 and all works fine there with links in the desktop start menus as well.

Hi Mabula,
Thanks for the response!Â
I did look at #28, but had already pulled down #27, and the only thing I saw in #28's release notes was a MacOS issue, so I didn't see any reason to expect an issue with linux...not that this was a big one - more like an FYI.
I do see that you have a #29 in progress now, so I think I will hold off until that comes out, and will at that time attempt a thorough deinstall of #27 and then an install of #29 to see what happens. Â
I'll be very glad when this looong beta period is over. I expect that you will be, too. 🙂

Thanks, Mabula! Â
I've just installed beta29.  Prior to doing that, I deleted the broken links (only). Those links did not come back, APP is now showing up in Linux Mint's menu, and it appears to be stating just fine. 🙂  I'll try processing some images a bit later today.
