A lightweight utility to run AppImages and DEB packages in an isolated, spoofed Ubuntu 24.04 environment using bubblewrap and Xephyr.

• Isolation: Filesystem isolation with bwrap and graphical isolation with Xephyr.
• OS Spoofing: Spoofs Ubuntu 24.04 os-release and lsb_release content.
• Support: Runs .AppImage and .deb files out of the box.
• Stability: Forces software rendering (LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1) to avoid GPU crashes in nested X servers.
• Clipboard Sync: On-demand clipboard synchronization from sandbox to host.
