[Cin] Unable to launch cin on Arch

[Phyllis Smith]

I am just "guessing" that you downloaded the year 2020 Arch version of
Cinelerra (
https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/tars/cinelerra-5.1-arch-20201031.x86_64.txz)
and that would explain the error message you get.  If that is the case,
please download the AppImage instead at:
    https://cinelerra-gg.org/download/images/CinGG-20241231-x86_64.AppImage
Put it in the directory of your choice and be sure it has execute
permission (chmod +x CinGG-20241231-x86_64.AppImage).  Then just start it
from a window by keying in its filename, as:
./CinGG-20241231-x86_64.AppImage

Andrea Paz builds on Arch all of the time with no problems. He usually
keeps his Arch O/S updated all of the time too so it should run.  However,
he did report recently that an older AppImage did not start for him.
