Ark cannot open AppImage v2 files with squashfs. The older v1 format with iso9660 works fine.
Unfortunately libarchive (the backend we use for AppImage v1 files) does not support squashfs. So this basically depends on #388572.

I tried to launch this appimage and it failed for me as well but I am not sure the exact cause. Please clarify if this is the same problem based on the following error messages. >skrooge: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1: version `ZLIB_1.2.9' not found (required by /tmp/.mount_skroogfXowNq/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng16.so.16) >skrooge: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found (required by /tmp/.mount_skroogfXowNq/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libudev.so.1) >skrooge: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found (required by /tmp/.mount_skroogfXowNq/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libsystemd.so.0)
If you want to *run* an AppImage bundle, you need to make it executable first: `chmod u+x <path/to/bundle>`. Then open it. If you don't do that, then opening it launches Ark (because it's an archive), which fails to open it (because of this bug).
I did set it as executable which created those issue but in order to look into the AppImage I did noticed the Ark issue. This is unrelated, sorry, I made a bug report for Skrooge at #389374
