AM-Application-Manager 8.3.1 has been released to resolve issues with AppImageLauncher, a command-line application that may generate errors when attempting to run an AppImage from the command line. A system daemon that may have altered other files during the installation is the problem's root cause. To prevent issues with AM/AppMan and other AppImages helpers, use AppImageLauncher's standalone AppImage, which may also be installed using "AM". The daemons in question are appimagelauncherd and appimaged, which may add new launchers to the menus and cause issues with the "AM"/"AppMan" updating mechanism.
