Because the same issues come up over and over, here are some FAQs/tips:

  • Check if you still need this. It is in the AUR because it is EOL and removed from Arch official repos since no official packages depend on it. If none of your other packages depend on it, just remove it.
  • If you do still need it and don't want to build it, consider switching to electronNN-bin.
  • If you do build this, yes it takes about 40 Gigs of sources and a lot of CPU to build.
  • Using the chroot build methods recommended by Arch will make this much easier, especially to not run into conflicts with node versions, etc.

The chromium repo is over 30 GB. Do we really need to clone the whole repo? Can't we just clone the linux part?

aliu commented on 2024-03-11 14:14 (UTC)

Yes. If nothing needs it, of course you can delete it.

gattino commented on 2024-03-11 13:03 (UTC)

@aliu So can I delete electron25 safely? because it seems absurd to me to have 2 identical programs ...

aliu commented on 2024-03-11 12:59 (UTC)

Probably Rcns 25 then. That should mean that nothing depends on it.

gattino commented on 2024-03-11 12:55 (UTC)

If, on the other hand, I try to uninstall Electron 27 (yay -R electron27) replies that it is impossible because required by Code

gattino commented on 2024-03-11 12:52 (UTC)

I tried to give the command, this is the result:

[gattino@cryptux ~]$ yay -R electron25

@aliu I didn't try to do the -R because I didn't know if it would have created problems for me uninstalling it!

aliu commented on 2024-03-11 12:46 (UTC)

What happens when you try to -R it?

HI, I currently noticed that both electron25 and electron27 are installed on my PC. I performed "pacman -Qi" (and yay -Qi) on both packages: both were installed as dependences to another package. But electron25 tells me not to be requested by any package while electron27 tells me to be requested by Codeoss. Is it normal that they are both installed? Can I delete electron25 safely? This is the result of Pacman -qi (and Yay -qi)
