Tries to make wrong file executable about appimageupdate HOT 3 CLOSED

Fixed in the rewrite.

from appimageupdate.

I tried to set it executable if the original (=old version) AppImage already was executable, but not do that if the original (=old version) AppImage was not excutable yet.

In the latter case, ideally it should show a message and ask the user whether to make it executable and run.

There is a bug that tries to chmod a+x the wrong file, namely based on the name of the .zsync file rather than based on the real name of the file (as contained in the header of the .zsync file):

#################### 100.0% 1264.8 kBps DONE    
100 percent

verifying download...checksum matches OK
used 1886208 local, fetched 3931288
chmod: cannot access 'hexchat-latest-x86_64.AppImage': No such file or directory

"latest" is wrong here.
