A shoutout to https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/discord_arch_electron/ (use that one if you want stable instead of canary!) :p

This is just a PKGBUILD based on the original discord-canary PKGBUILD and the discord_arch_electron PKGBUILD to use with Canary instead.

Discord on the latest version uses Electron 22 by itself. Might be worth using the official version if that is what you're after.

!! As Electron 28 joined the official repos, I've pinned this to electron26 instead, as using Electron 28 results on a crash at startup. If it ever works with Electron 28, please let me know.

Keep in mind that flagging it out of date because it doesn't work with a newer electron version won't do much. I can't fix Discord itself, this package is quite literally just a repackage so it launches with a newer electron!

anyone else having it crash when they try watching a video stream?

Why has discord started requesting the creation of a kwallet at startup after the last update?

@cleo404 I created the bug report here

Alright, I'll make a bug report later today if nobody else has done so already. I'll post a comment and keep everyone updated.

As this is an issue with a pkgrel bump in an archlinux's package, it must be reported to https://bugs.archlinux.org, please add hardware and DE information, for reference this is the commit that broke it: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/commit/4e753824a8aaaa511da8060e879f54a5a4578055#diff-3e341d2d9c67be01819b25b25d5e53ea3cdf3a38d28846cda85a195eb9b7203a

I have the same issue. It seems downgrading electron from 16.0.7-2 to 16.0.7-1 fixes the problem

I'm having issues getting this to work with electron v16.0.7, whenever I scroll down anywhere discord crashes. My current fix is to run discord with electron 15, which works fine. If I'm able to get any more debug info I'll post another comment.

### /usr/bin/discord-canary

#!/bin/sh
exec electron15 /usr/lib/discord-canary/app.asar $@
