Problem

The coder-xfce-vnc build fails in the Nimbalyst install step. It happens on every branch, including master, and first showed up on the #22 and #23 CI runs (runs 72 and 73). The log ends right after the AppImage downloads, with no error text:

100  703M  100  703M    0     0   245M      0  0:00:02  0:00:02 --:--:--  259M
error building image: error building stage: failed to execute command: waiting for process to exit: exit status 1

Cause

Nimbalyst 0.36.5 renamed the files inside its AppImage:

	Before	Now
Electron binary	`@nimbalystelectron`	`nimbalyst`
Desktop entry	`@nimbalystelectron.desktop`	`nimbalyst.desktop`
Icon	`@nimbalystelectron.png`	`nimbalyst.png`

The image downloads the AppImage from releases/latest, so it picked up the new layout automatically. The step still checks for the old binary name with a bare test -x /opt/nimbalyst/@nimbalystelectron, and a failing test prints nothing. I confirmed the exact failing command by running the extracted step with bash -x in an ubuntu:24.04 pod.

The app's internal name is unchanged (@nimbalyst/electron), so user data on existing PVCs is not affected.

Fix

Point the step at the new names, and make the file checks print what's missing so the next upstream rename is visible in the CI log.
