Version 1.4.1: the AppImages and ARM packages, and the fixes found while testing them.

What's in it (already on main)

• Build and test on 64-bit ARM too #42 adds RPM and .deb packages for 64-bit ARM, and runs the tests on an ARM runner.
• AppImages for x86_64 and arm64 #43 adds AppImages for x86_64 and 64-bit ARM. From an AppImage, Weir:
  • starts at login;
  • offers to add itself to the application menu;
  • starts the AppImage file when you choose Restart Weir, so an update takes effect.
• AppImages for x86_64 and arm64 #43 also brings the fixes from the test rounds on Nobara and six VMs:
  • Restart Weir brings the mixer back;
  • logging out and straight back in opens the window again;
  • the tray icon behaves on GNOME and COSMIC;
  • the recording dot sits right on scaled displays and shows on GNOME and Cinnamon;
  • hotkey notifications show on GNOME;
  • the recording outline is no longer cut off.
• Unfold Recent changes inside the "…" menu #44: Recent changes unfold inside the "…" menu.
• Name each test build's download after the file in it #45: each test build's download is named after the file in it, and the run page has a table saying which download is for which computer.

This PR

• The version is 1.4.1 in Cargo.toml and both lock files (only Weir's own crates change).
• packaging/weir.spec gets its Version and a %changelog entry dated Thu Nov 12 2026.
• The AppStream metadata gets a <release> for 1.4.1, which software centers show as the release notes.
• The README is unchanged: the AppImage and ARM install text came with Build and test on 64-bit ARM too #42 and AppImages for x86_64 and arm64 #43.
• It's a patch version, as 1.0.1 was for the Arch package, because it mainly adds ways to install Weir.

Checked

• The workflow's version check, run locally, passes (Cargo.toml, spec and AppStream agree on 1.4.1).
• cargo metadata --locked passes for both workspaces.
• cargo check --workspace --locked passes.

After merging

Publish the release in GitHub's web UI with tag v1.4.1. The Packages workflow then attaches, checksums and attests:

• the two RPMs;
• the two .deb files;
• the two AppImages with their .zsync files;
• the Arch package.

The ARM files haven't been tried on an ARM computer; the README says so.
