Bug Report

On the linux AppImage release, if it's a previous version (i.e. not the latest release), pyfa tries to create a network process using webkit at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.0. It errors saying it doesn't exist, even though it's there in the AppImage at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.0

Expected behavior:

The pyfa release pyfa-v2.60.2-linux.AppImage (previous version) should be able to open without crashing.

Actual behavior:

Opening pyfa in terminal results in the following error:

ERROR **: 12:21:58.052: Unable to spawn a new child process: Failed to spawn child process “/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/webkit2gtk-4.0/WebKitNetworkProcess” (No such file or directory)
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

The app then crashes and closes.

Detailed steps to reproduce:

Run a previous version of pyfa AppImage rather than the latest version.

Operating system and version (eg: Windows 10, OS X 10.9, OS X 10.11, Ubuntu 16.10):

Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon

It might be worth noting that I also see warnings before this error:
