### UniGetUI Version

2026.2.2

### Windows version, edition, and architecture

Bazzite Linux 44, x64

### Describe your issue

The shell script used to launch UniGetUI on Linux (`/usr/bin/unigetui`) seems to be referencing an out of date executable name:

```
#!/bin/sh
exec /opt/unigetui/UniGetUI.Avalonia "$@"
```

However the executable is now called `/opt/unigetui/UniGetUI`, so this script fails to launch the app.

### Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Open a terminal on Linux
2. Run this command: `unigetui`

Research direction

Start by locating the packaging source for /usr/bin/unigetui and compare its target with the installed executable under /opt/unigetui. Run unigetui on Linux to verify the launcher starts successfully and no longer references the nonexistent name.
