@Carmelo_DrRaw if @heckflosse agrees, I think it would be best if you used libraw from GitHub. Reason being is that the latest stable is old (as is the case with RawTherapee), while the latest release - 0.18-Beta3 - is much newer, but probably unavailable in most distros.
That was also my initial idea, but then I ran into some issues with the LibRaw build system from git: it only provides a configure.ac file, and running autoconf was giving me some fatal errors.
Before spending time to investigate the issue, I wanted to set-up the appimage to work with a custom LibRaw version, so I picked 0.17.2.
Now I will come back to the git version and try to solve the building issue…
Yu are right, I was still using a checkout from few days ago… Now I have uploaded a version from the latest git sources, which we can probably put on the “Community Software” page. Could you maybe write a little intro to describe the package?
Mint 17 is basically the system on which I build the appimage, so it is probably not very representative…
yesterday I had it a go with a Live “Debian Dog” distribution, which has an extremely basic environment, and it was working as well (my GIMP appimage still fails on that system, for example).
