@picokan: Yes I know that, still it would be good to change the version, also for reasons of installing etc.

I remember that it did not work for me, there were also some upstream reports etc. Anyway upstream suggests to use the recommended version of electron, so that errors, bugs etc. are avoided.

@G3r0 Since this is a git package, it will always download the latest commit from github and install that, so the 0.13.1.beta you see is just the version this was when I last made a change to the PKGBUILD.

Can you tell me what errors are happening? Right now I'm using this package with electron18 and I haven't come across any errors.

@picokan I think this needs some updates. pkgver is now 0.16.0.beta

But more importantly, electron16 or electron17 needs to be used, electron18 seems to cause errors.

Sorry for the multiple updates in quick succession, but Arch very recently changed the electron package to be using version 14, which has caused multiple bugs in Freetube.

The default version of electron in Freetube (e.g. for pre-compiled binaries) is likely to be changed back to 13, and I'm also changing the diff files and dependencies here to use it.

@moita I couldn't replicate your problem, but I did find a problem with the current .diff file and the current build.js file that should be fixed now.

I did notice that the path /home/user/.cache/yay/freetube-git/src/FreeTube/dist/linux-unpacked/resources/app.asar is wrong, it should be /home/user/.cache/yay/freetube-git/src/FreeTube/**build**/linux-unpacked/resources/app.asar, but I don't know what could cause that path to be changed.

I'm having problems with git build recently, any ideas?

To ensure your native dependencies are always matched electron version, simply add script `"postinstall": "electron-builder install-app-deps" to your `package.json`

The most recent error that kept Freetube from compiling was due to a new version of nodejs breaking something. For the mean time, freetube and freetube-git will use node-lts-fermium as a dependency instead.

get this error

cp: cannot stat './FreeTube/build/linux-unpacked/resources/app.asar': No such file or directory
