Thanks for report, you right, upstream removed gist usage in 1.2.2 
(https://github.com/linuxmint/xapp/commit/f40a5376554c2675ec9ed1e4c45d30329a8a4c32) 
and added use of netcat but in debian package was missed, I'll fix it in 
next build.

I'll fix it in next build. Commit description 
(https://salsa.debian.org/cinnamon-team/xapp/-/commit/d68e7a9e9948e0b19505b82578641823fa1088e1) 
don't specify but I suppose was moved to avoid conflict to other 
possible similar script/binary (even if no other package in official 
repo have it for now) and I think is better keep it
