Hi all,
I tried the AppImage RC on Debian 13 and it’s working great, but when I installed a python script (the continuum subtraction one, if it’s at all relevant) I seen a bunch of python files and libraries (scikit, qt6, etc) being downloaded and installed.
I trust Siril’s developers so I am not overly concerned about this, but I certainly raised by eyebrow. As a general rule I do not like to have code running on my machine that I am not tracking through the OS package manager, and I have an audit trail of where code or scripts come from. How can I locate and delete the binaries and python libs that were downloaded to run this script?
In addition, rather than downloading the scripts using the new interface, I prefer just cloning the siril-scripts repo. Does the new python scripting system require that I download those files in this self-managed manner, or can I use my system installed python and libraries? I appreciate this is a very difficult compatibility problem (python is particularly nasty in this regard) and every OS potentially has different versions of everything, unless the scripts stick to a very small subset of stable libraries.
