ATTN: The hard dependency on gnome-keyring has finally been relaxed. I have not tested this thoroughly; your mileage may vary.

immackay commented on 2019-10-04 23:52 (UTC)

For whom it may concern: this package depends on Shiftkey's linux support fork, located at https://github.com/shiftkey/desktop/

I check this regularly for releases. If you want the newest version, I suggest you check out github-desktop-git and modify the PKGBUILD to use the base repository, with the understanding that the application takes a significant amount of RAM to build.

gnome-keyring is an optional dependency on the non-bin version but a required one here?

Attempting to run yields

[11378:0304/135030.607839:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(157)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /opt/github-desktop/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.
/usr/bin/github-desktop: line 3: 11378 Trace/breakpoint trap   (core dumped) /opt/github-desktop/github-desktop "$@"

Addressed by running

cd /opt/github-desktop
sudo chown root chrome-sandbox 
sudo chmod 4755 chrome-sandbox

@immackay, likely you must update your .SRCINFO, cause yay is giving me a warning about my github-desktop-bin version is newer than AUR

Should change line 29 of PKGBUILD to:

printf "#!/bin/sh\n\nLD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcurl-openssl-1.0.so /opt/${_pkgname}/github-desktop \"\$@\"\n" | install -Dm755 /dev/stdin "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/${_pkgname}" }

@immackay: Thanks for creating this package. I've updated it to the latest build here https://gist.github.com/friday/e29a91956619e3520c34caa0ace4e4a7.

@immackay, it works now! No "Segmentation faults" any more. I tested both. github-desktop-bin and github-desktop latest versions (1.3.4-1).

Thanks for fixing this.

@mlerota, do you have any way of reproducing that error? I have not been able to so far.

EDIT: I have removed the LD_PRELOAD line as github-desktop depends on libcurl-gnutls now, as far as I can tell. Previously there was no explicit support for linux.

mlerota commented on 2018-08-15 14:52 (UTC)

Have the same problem on https://aur.archlinux.org/github-desktop.git

/usr/bin/github-desktop: line 3: 24454 Segmentation fault (core dumped) LD_PRELOAD=libcurl.so.3 /opt/github-desktop/desktop "$@"

And /usr/lib/libcurl.so.3 is owned by libcurl-compat 7.61.0-1.
