An example for OpenSuse Leap KDE AppImage installation:


1. You can take the AppImage file, but you have to install first the 
AppImage demon.


sudo zypper ar 
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/tools:/building/openSUSE_Leap_42.2/ 
dev-tools-building

sudo zypper ref

sudo zypper in appimaged


2. Save the AppImage file from sourceforge on your computer, for 
exapmple in that directory:


/home/user/scribus/scribus-1.5.3-linux-x86_64.AppImage


mkdir /home/user/scribus (makes a directory with the name scribus)


or /usr/local/bin/scribus-1.5.3-linux-x86_64.AppImage

but in that directory you need root rights


3. make the srcibus appimage file executable

chmod u+x /home/user/scribus/scribus-1.5.3-linux-x86_64.AppImage


4. You can start srcibus from the command line with

./home/user/scribus/scribus-1.5.3-linux-x86_64.AppImage


5. Or you can make a .desktop file as a desktop icon (in KDE) Here is an 
example:

Create a .desktop file with vi

vi /home/user/.local/share/applications/scribus.desktop (or in 
/usr/share/applications/ for all linux users on your computer)

In VI press „i“ for insert and than copy that below with „ctrl + c“ and 
insert with „ctrl + shift + v“
