I want to create an AppImage of my Python software and distribute it this way. The script will be compiled with Nuitka to include Python and Standard Library functionality. In the AppImage I want to bundle it with other Libre software, but in binary format downloaded from Arch package repos, as my script depends on them. My script is more like a complex automation tool. I do not make any changes to the code of these binary dependencies, just include them as they are.

I don’t know how to deal with the licenses. Do I have to include the license for every project in my AppImage? Do I have to put the source code of these projects in it too?

    That’s what I am doing now too. I add the license text files in the app, document where to find and to what program it belongs to and provide a link where to get the source files. I have looked up each license and they allow distributing the binaries.
