In trying to determine where the error is, I was not able to ascertain where things went wrong so I started from scratch to get the steps correct. Although I can say for sure that the last error of:
> Alt+h > sh: line 1: /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/bin/doc/ContextManual.pl: No > such file or directory > is for sure telling me that the default file, which is part of the original source and you should still see in /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/doc, is missing in /home/cinelerra/cinelerra-5.1/bin/doc; that is ContextManual.pl. Something must have gotten deleted or not copied to AppDir/usr in its entirety. If it is not too much trouble, I would do a fresh build and only then execute directly "in the bin/doc directory": tar xvf HTML_Manual-20241031.tgz then before running your appimage build, check by executing "bin/cin" and doing Alt h. If that works then the copy via bld_appimage.sh should result in Help being automatically included. Standing by here for results. On Mon, Dec 9, 2024 at 8:36 AM Terje J.
