Hmm, my script knowledge is a bit old. Line 16: "if [[ "$(arch)" =
"x86_64" ]] ; then"
So it tries to start the command 'arch' in a subshell, correct?

Anyway, even with my replacement script, the appimage doesn't start, 
"...
digikam-7.0.0-beta1-20191221T113643-x86-64.appimage
..." (see previous mail).

As said, old appimages do run fine.
