Missing squashfs support in kernel results in mysterious error message from firejail when trying to run an appimage file: Error mounting appimage: appimage.c:122 No such device despite those appimages running fine on their own. This seems to be caused by use of squashfs: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/blob/04057a4652e889e23b66d95da770e7e7abf75ba5/src/firejail/appimage.c#L121 After rebuilding kernel with squashfs support, firejail runs appimages v2 just fine. This probably should be a kernel config check (CONFIG_SQUASHFS=y?) or a post-install note.

Not a fatal error since other modes work fine without it.
