pkg2appimage: libnsl.so.1 no longer part of glibc in Fedora 28, what to do?

According to https://github.com/knapsu/plex-media-player-appimage/issues/13, libnsl.so.1is no longer part of the glibc package and no longer installed by default in F28.

What to do? Is it safe to bundle? Currently we are not bundling any libraries that are contained in the Ubuntu glibc package since we assume that they don’t like version mismatches. Is libnsl an exception?

Obviously you can also compile any foss software from source

Compiling is for developers.

Users need binaries.

To resolve an issue with missed libnsl.1.0 library on Fedora 28 you have to install the libnsl package. Fedora 28 - by default - installs the libnsl2 packages (x64, x86).
