AppImage x86_64

Penguin's eggs are generated and new birds are ready to fly...

It took years of work to create the penguins-eggs, and I also incurred expenses for renting the site and subscribing to Google Gemini, for the artificial intelligence that is now indispensable.

AppImage x86_64

I have introduced dependency management in the AppImage version using native meta-packages for each supported distribution. This resolves any incompatibilities at the root and has the advantage of allowing easy removal of dependencies installed by penguins-eggs AppImage, without the risk of removing pre-existing packages.

Essentially, at this point, using native penguins-eggs or penguins-eggs AppImage should give exactly the same results and behave in exactly the same way.

The meta-packages incorporated into the AppImage were built on specific distributions, while my tests - so far - are mainly related to Debian and - in particular - to the trixie version, but it should reasonably apply to all supported distributions.

Conceptually, I am even thinking of discontinuing the native packages altogether and releasing only the AppImage for all distributions, then perhaps trying to extend support to others.

However, proving this takes time, so I am relying heavily on your opinions and the results of your suggestions.
