前言
在 Linux 环境下，开发完 Qt 程序后，也需要制作为一个安装包或者可执行文件进行分发。这里介绍使用 linuxdeployqt 将 Qt 程序打包为 .AppImage 应用程序（类似于 Windows 的绿色免安装软件）
环境配置
配置 Qt 环境变量
这一步是为了能让 linuxdeployqt 工具识别到 Qt 的环境。编辑 bashrc 文件
bash
vim ~/.bashrc在最后一行后面加入自己的 Qt 环境
sh
#QT ENV
export QTDIR=/home/leo/Qt/5.15.2/gcc_64
export PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$QTDIR/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=$QTDIR/plugins:$QT_PLUGIN_PATH
export QML2_PATH=$QTDIR/qml:$QML2_PATH立即生效
bash
source ~/.bashrc验证
bash
qmake -v
配置 linuxdeployqt
前往 linuxdeployqt 下载 release 发布的 linuxdeployqt-continuous-x86_64.AppImage
然后授予可执行权限，并改个名方便使用，放入 /usr/local/bin 路径下，方便随地使用
bash
chmod 777 linuxdeployqt-continuous-x86_64.AppImage
mv linuxdeployqt-continuous-x86_64.AppImage linuxdeployqt
sudo mv linuxdeployqt /usr/local/bin测试一下
bash
linuxdelpoyqt --version
配置 AppImageKit
前往 AppImageKit 下载 appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage
同样地，添加执行权限：
bash
chmod 777 appimagetool-x86_64.AppImage安装 patchelf
直接 apt 安装 patchelf 即可
bash
sudo apt install patchelf打包
将应用拷贝至 output 目录下，运行命令（这里以 QClipboard 可执行程序为例）：
bash
leo@leo-VirtualBox:~/Desktop/output$ linuxdeployqt QClipboard -appimage
linuxdeployqt (commit 6fcaf74), build 55 built on 2023-09-23 13:33:41 UTC
Not using FHS-like mode
app-binary: "/home/leo/Desktop/output/QClipboard"
appDirPath: "/home/leo/Desktop/output"
relativeBinPath: "QClipboard"
ERROR: Desktop file missing, creating a default one (you will probably want to edit it)
ERROR: Icon file missing, creating a default one (you will probably want to edit it)
qmakePath 3= ""
appimagetool, continuous build (commit 8bbf694), build <local dev build> built on 2020-12-31 11:48:33 UTC
fatal: 不是 git 仓库（或者任何父目录）：.git
Failed to run 'git rev-parse --short HEAD: Child process exited with code 128 (code 128)
Desktop file: /home/leo/Desktop/output/default.desktop
Categories entry not found in desktop file
.desktop file is missing a Categories= key然后就可以看到，output 目录下生成了一些文件
lrwxrwxrwx 1 leo leo 10 11月 3 21:31 AppRun -> QClipboard
-rw-rw-r-- 1 leo leo 123 11月 3 21:31 default.desktop
-rw-rw-r-- 1 leo leo 0 11月 3 21:31 default.png
drwxrwxr-x 6 leo leo 4096 11月 3 21:31 doc
drwxrwxr-x 2 leo leo 4096 11月 3 21:32 lib
drwxrwxr-x 7 leo leo 4096 11月 3 21:32 plugins
-rwxrwxr-x 1 leo leo 157512 11月 3 21:30 QClipboard
-rw-rw-r-- 1 leo leo 145 11月 3 21:32 qt.conf
drwxrwxr-x 2 leo leo 4096 11月 3 21:32 translations
修改 desktop 文件
我们需要修改默认生成的 desktop 文件
bash
leo@leo-VirtualBox :~/Desktop/output$ cat default. desktop
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=Application
Exec=AppRun %F
Icon=default
Comment=Edit this default file
Terminal=true可以查看 desktop 文件规范进行修改
这里将 default. desktop 文件重命名为 QClipboard. desktop 文件，并修改为以下内容：
[Desktop Entry]
Categories=System; Office;
Type=Application
Keywords=clip; clipboard;
Name=QClipboard
Exec=AppRun %F
Icon=logo
Comment=A cross-platform clipboard tool that allows selecting items from clipboard history to paste.
Terminal=true
然后删除了多余的文件夹，最终效果如下：
生成 appimage 应用
使用 appimagetool 生成 appimage 应用。
执行 ./appimagetool-x 86_64. AppImage output/ 后面的output就是我们的 output 目录。
注意：由于下载的appimagetool-x 86_64. AppImage应用并没有放入/usr/local/bin路径下，所以不能直接执行它。
bash
leo@leo-VirtualBox :~/Downloads$ ./appimagetool-x 86_64. AppImage ~/Desktop/output/
appimagetool, continuous build (commit 8 bbf 694), build <local dev build> built on 2020-12-31 11:48:33 UTC
/home/leo/Desktop/output/QClipboard. desktop: hint: value "System; Office;" for key "Categories" in group "Desktop Entry" contains more than one main category; application might appear more than once in the application menu
Using architecture x 86_64
/home/leo/Desktop/output should be packaged as QClipboard-x 86_64. AppImage

Please consider submitting your AppImage to AppImageHub, the crowd-sourced
central directory of available AppImages, by opening a pull request
at https://github.com/AppImage/appimage.github.io然后就可以在appimagetool-x 86_64. AppImage同级路径下，看到生成的QClipboard-x 86_64. AppImage包了
执行测试
QClipboard 应用成功执行
注意，分发给别人时，需要加上执行权限才可运行
总结
以上就是在 Linux 系统下，打包 Qt 程序为 AppImage 程序的全部过程。
