Minimal reproduce step

Try any way you want to install pake-youtube on an Arch Linux system. Let me tell you what I have tried:

  1. I have tried to use the bundled AppImage package in your releases page. Failed
  2. I have downloaded the.deb package and tried to install it with debtap. works for 3 seconds and shutsdown
  3. I have tried to use pake myself. It generated an executable AppImage package, which, you guessed it, Fails in 3 seconds.

What did you expect to see?

I hope for full arch Linux support if it's possible!

What did you see instead?

Absolute mess

Anything else?

Thank you for your effort!
