Thanks for letting me know it works for you. I made the AppImage because more and more distros are preventing users from installing python modules into the system Python using pip (without jumping through a hoop). So without a distro packaged version of PySide6, the only option those users have is to create a virtual python environment. I don't have the time (and probably not the patience if I'm honest!) to provide that level of support/documentation. Hence the AppImage.
The only downside is that you if you require any different modules for custom plugins, you might have to switch to the system interpreter to run them. Not terrible, but not great either.
Building PySide6 is a pretty straightforward process (and has a lot of customizable options). I'm not sure why Debian/Ubuntu is not providing a package for it in their repos. But it would solve a ton of problems if they would.
