Add AstroBurst

[probonopd]

Repository: https://github.com/samuelkriegerbonini-dev/AstroBurst

This is the first astronomical image processor built on the Rust/Tauri/WebGPU stack, delivering near-native performance with a fraction of the memory footprint of legacy tools.

• Stars: 100
• Release with the AppImage: v0.6.4.2 (2026-09-27T03:28:54Z)
• AppImage asset: AstroBurst_0.6.4_amd64.AppImage
• License: AGPL-3.0

Found by .github/workflows/discover-apps.yml, which looks for GitHub
repositories that publish AppImages but are not in the catalog yet. This

❌ Test failure

@samuelkriegerbonini-dev: this pull request adds the AppImage from your GitHub repository to the AppImage catalog; the test reports the following. Could you have a look?

• The AppImage is missing a required file (see below). See https://docs.appimage.org/reference/appdir.html for what an AppImage must contain.

First error in the log:

FATAL: .DirIcon is missing in /tmp/.mount_runtimiFkkma

What next: once the AppImage is fixed (e.g. in a new release), comment /retest here to test it again. If it should not be in the catalog after all, close this pull request; an app that is already in the catalog can be removed by a maintainer with /remove.

Thank you for submitting this application! We would like to add it to the AppImage catalog, but for this the AppImage needs a .DirIcon file, and the one tested here does not have it.

This is a bug of Tauri's AppImage bundling that is fixed in Tauri 2.11.4: tauri-apps/tauri#15596. Updating to Tauri 2.11.4 or later and building a new release of the AppImage should be all that is needed.

Once the new release is out, please comment /retest here and the application is tested again. Thank you!

Compatibility: not self-contained: uses the C library of the system; references glibc 2.35

Warnings:

• The AppImage contains no update information, so users cannot update it with AppImageUpdate or similar tools. Please consider embedding it when building the AppImage (e.g., appimagetool -u) and publishing the .zsync file next to the AppImage; see https://docs.appimage.org/packaging-guide/optional/updates.html
