Like creating an scm to install actual files instead of an AppImage to avoid fuse hassle, or running it without emulating FHS to get access to system `grep coreutils gcc-toolchain gtk+ alsa-lib`, or using per default WayLand to avoid all the x11 hassle, or lighter packages than `grep coreutils gcc-toolchain gtk+ alsa-lib`, or to make work fuse to avoid extraction

```shell
$ guix shell fuse -- .local/share/AppImage/ZenBrowser.AppImage
fuse: failed to exec fusermount: Permission denied

Cannot mount AppImage, please check your FUSE setup.
You might still be able to extract the contents of this AppImage
if you run it with the --appimage-extract option.
See https://github.com/AppImage/AppImageKit/wiki/FUSE
for more information
open dir error: No such file or directory
```

Yeah but like you said it's complicated (obiously more than the command I shared) and it's not AppImage anymore

Better install it with an scm if it's not to use AppImage. But do you have instructions to make work the tar?

Exactly, I tried many times on my side but it's really difficult. Many way to skin a cat plus each software is it's own adventure even if you can take basis on sister package
