Add --exclude-library option to standalone version

[dantti]

It would be useful to have the standalone version also able to exclude-libraries, this helps with issues:

#153
#150
#110
#108

[TheAssassin]

We should use an environment variable, which then is usable both in standalone and plugin mode. Please see https://github.com/linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy/wiki/Plugin-system#controlling-plugin-behavior.

@TheAssassin I added the env var please look at linuxdeploy repo this is for the stand alone mode only

[TheAssassin]

I'm not sure I quite understand you here. An environment implemented in linuxdeploy only has no effect in plugins at all unless they support them, too. Usually, it is preferable, though, to implement a specific one for the plugin. It's really low effort to export MYPLUGIN_SOMEVAR="$LINUXDEPLOY_SOMEVAR".

I'm talking about linuxdeploy/linuxdeploy#283

Hello, what's the status of this PR? @TheAssassin?

[Zaraka]

Can this be merged? This is a problem everytime I'm trying to use linuxdeploy

[dantti]

while this is not merged you can either build it or use the files from my fork https://github.com/dantti/linuxdeploy-plugin-qt/releases/tag/continuous

Is there any update on this?
