Issue

Hello, Cerebro looks really wonderful! As a recent mimgrant from KDE to Gnome, I was looking for alternitves to KRunner and this fits the bill. I am using Fedora Silverblue 39 and as an immutable OS, I cannot install this directly as you have mentioned in the Readme. Fedora Silverblue and many immutable OSes recommend the Flatpaks or the distrobox. Since you do not have a Flatpak, the workaround is to install it in a distrobox, could you please let me know if that does not hinder the operation of Cerebro.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Check if Cerebro works with distrobox on Fedora Silverblue by testing in a distrobox container; if successful, document the steps. Alternatively, consider creating a Flatpak.
