after installing the linux updater on Linux Mint, I was propted to "choose an application to run the file in". I fixed this by changing the file properties to "allow to run as executable".

I mean, the only thing we could do is to distribute the executable inside a tarball, which can preserve the file attributes

#

but for a basic binary file as we distribute it now, we can't make it executable for you, because that flag is set in the local file system, that's not a bug, but just how Linux works

you gotta run chmod +x filename yourself
