Install Linux CI deps with apt, drop package cache - #58
Merged
Conversation
Replace awalsh128/cache-apt-pkgs-action with sudo apt update/install in validate-desktop and release. The cache action restores packages without running maintainer scripts, which left GTK unconfigured on arm64 and broke linuxdeploy AppImage bundling.

awalsh128/cache-apt-pkgs-actionwith plainsudo apt update/sudo apt install -yinvalidate-desktop.ymlandrelease.yml. Do not cache the packages.The cache action restores
.debfiles without registering them through dpkg or running maintainer scripts. On arm64 that left GTK’simmodules.cachemissing, solinuxdeploy-plugin-gtkfailed while bundling the AppImage (failed to run linuxdeploy). A realapt installruns those scripts and configures the packages fully.Package lists are unchanged:
