Problem

I've been goin through the Hot Dog tutorial and it fails at the very end because it fails to run the tauri bundler.

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Go through the Hot Dog tutorial
• Bundle on linux with dx bundle --desktop --package-types "appimage"

Expected behavior

The app should bundle into an .appimage

Questionnaire

I'm interested in fixing this myself but don't know where to start.

Searchin through the issues, I wonder if this is ultimately related to #5278

I tried compilin the project from that repo and it didn't work, so that sucks.
