- Downloads resolve streams with the user's download format/quality via a
  new StreamRequest instead of the streaming settings, and bypass the
  playback stream-URL cache in both directions
- Downloads only consider progressive streams; DASH/HLS manifests were
  previously saved as-is instead of audio
- NewPipe: map AAC "mp4a.40.x"/"m4a" to the advertised "aac"/"mp4" so real
  AAC streams can match (previously the hard-coded aac/mp4 manifests always
  won), report each stream's real delivery method, skip streams without a
  format or non-URL content
- Fail the download on non-2xx responses, on a range request answered with
  a full 200, and on video/* content, with localized reasons, instead of
  writing the response body to disk
- Save AAC as .m4a
- Tests for request overrides, manifest exclusion and cache isolation

+The `.deb` and `.rpm` use your distro's shared libraries and declare them as dependencies, so the package manager installs them (on Fedora, `vlc-libs` needs RPM Fusion enabled). The `.AppImage` is the self-contained one: it bundles VLC, GTK 3 and WebKitGTK (see [What the AppImage bundles](#what-the-appimage-bundles)).
+
+#### What the AppImage bundles
+
+Build it with `./gradlew :composeApp:packageGraalvmAppImage -PappImage=true`. Without `-PappImage=true` nothing is bundled and the app uses the system libraries, which is what the `.deb`/`.rpm` and `:composeApp:run` do.
+
+The bundle follows the [AppImage exclude list](https://github.com/AppImageCommunity/pkg2appimage/blob/master/excludelist) and what Tauri apps ship. It carries VLC (audio-only, from the [vlcj-bundler](https://github.com/team-spotube/vlcj-bundler-gradle-plugin) plugin's `bundleVlc` option), GTK 3, WebKitGTK 4.1, GLib/GIO, pango/cairo and their dependencies, plus glib-networking for HTTPS in the webview. It leaves the host's glibc, `libstdc++`, `libz`, GL/EGL/DRM, X11/xcb, ALSA, fontconfig/freetype/harfbuzz and the Wayland libraries alone, so the host's graphics, display and sound stack is used. Everything is taken from the Ubuntu 24.04 archive, so the AppImage needs glibc 2.38 or newer.
+
+How it works, in short:
+- [`DownloadLinuxGtkBundleTask`](buildSrc/src/main/kotlin/org/spotube/gradle/DownloadLinuxGtkBundleTask.kt) downloads the packages, keeps the libraries reachable from GTK/WebKit and relocates them with `patchelf`. Needs `ar`, `tar`, `zstd`, `readelf` and `patchelf`.
+- WebKitGTK has its helper-process path compiled in, so the library is patched to look relative to the working directory, and at startup the app moves there ([`AppImageEnvironment`](composeApp/src/jvmMain/kotlin/org/spotube/spotube/core/appimage/AppImageEnvironment.kt)). It also points `GIO_EXTRA_MODULES` at the bundled TLS module and sets `WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1`, because the bundled WebKitGTK 2.44's dmabuf renderer never paints (or aborts) against a newer host Mesa/compositor. The display backend is left alone: forcing X11 doesn't help, since the webview doesn't paint on XWayland either.
+- Startup order matters: `main()` calls `GraalVmInitializer.initialize()` first, since the VLC loader and the environment setup read `compose.application.resources.dir`.
+
 #### Reflection metadata (when a feature breaks only in the native build)
 
 A native image is a closed world: anything the app reaches through reflection, JNI or JNA (vlcj, the Zipline/QuickJS plugin engine, NewPipe, ktor, datastore, …) must be declared at build time. Nucleus generates most of this automatically. The rest is in [`composeApp/graalvm/reachability-metadata.json`](composeApp/graalvm/reachability-metadata.json).
