Just file, not patch

I tested it like

CONFIG_OPTIONS="--without-thirdparty" ./bld_appimage.sh

and it seems to work (not sure what will happen if you pass both --disable-static-build and --enable-static-build. I moved --enable-static-build to its own line so  you hopefully can just harmlessly comment it out.)

Since this is completely different then what is in the GIT source, is it what we should go with?  My biggest concern is "makeimage" versus "linuxdeploy" and simplistically.  This one has the advantage of adding the Manual documentation.

But it is easy enough to add the Manual documentation AND this patch to the current GIT one:

   0003-Add-CONFIG_OPTIONS-env.-variable-handling-to-bld_app.patch

Git patch was (hopefully) just this - diff between what we have there in root of cinelerra-5.1 tree (there is another script in blds/ directory! but with same name. they are different!) and my changes.

If you want to mod script in blds with same $CONFIG_OPTIONS handling - go ahead, you have linuxdeploy working at least on slightly older OSes. (we ab/use appimage as some way to fossilize current build so we can easily retest even if os libs all slip away. Idea behind appimages was building on oldest possible OS of course)

In blds there are bld_static.sh and bld_dynamic.sh. Wouldn't it correspondingly be an idea to have bld_appimage_static.sh and bld_appimage_dynamic.sh?
As standard the static version (standalone, single-user, bundled) might embed everything needed included the thirdbarty ffmpeg. The dynamic version (lightweight, single-user, unbundled) might as standard be based on the system ffmpeg and libs. Both could be customized by uncommenting options.

---------

I have rebuild Cingg unbundled as previously on Slowroll using

CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/ffmpeg ./configure --with-single-user --disable-static-build --without-thirdparty --without-libdpx

Should then build a corresponding AppImage and applied the modded appimage.sh with line 20 commented out

# CONFIG_OPTIONS="$CONFIG_OPTIONS --enable-static-build" 

CONFIG_OPTIONS="--without-thirdparty" ./bld_appimage.sh > bld_appimage.log 2>&1

I wonder why the dependice errors *) and stop arise, causing no AppImage created?
Seemingly I have the claimed dependices installed, so I wonder if a CFLAG equivalent is needed or?
