Trying to run an appimage thing, and it depends on host libraries. So... what's the point of appimage again?

Apologies to the appimage folks, I wrote this after spending far too many hours trying to get some proprietary sw released in an appimage thing to actually run on my laptop. It's likely not appimage's fault.

@craftyguy If you work for a company that makes proprietary software, and you want to release "Linux apps that run anywhere", please follow these steps:
1. Choose a software license: writefreesoftware.org/learn/pa
2. Release the source code
