Description

Previous versions of Aaru were built as standalone executables.
From version 5.4 onward they are not standalone anymore and require the .NET runtime (specifically version 8) to be installed.

Is this an intended change or an oversight?
It does not seem intentional when looking at the v5.4 branch.

Exact command line used

./aaru

Expected behavior

Required command was not provided.

The tarball.

aaru-5.3.2_linux_amd64.tar.gz (37.3 MB) works fine without an external runtime.

aaru-5.4.1_linux_amd64.tar.gz (6.17 MB) and aaru-5.4_linux_amd64.tar.gz (7.73 MB) require a .NET 8 runtime (in my case 8.0.413, I tried it with 9 first and it failed) and the environment variable DOTNET_ROOT to be set to the appropriate location.

EDIT: I added the size of each archive, which also makes it apparent that they are packaged differently.
