Also, alsa-lib, gtk3, and nss are unnecessary dependencies since they are already dependencies of electron.

This package should use electron31 instead of electron. Using unsupported electron versions can cause issues, and such issues will lead to upstream bug reports.

Hello, there is a not blocking gyp error for missing python when building with devtools, same as https://github.com/FabioLolix/PKGBUILD-AUR_fix/pull/46#issuecomment-2380637987

I have approved the PR on github for building heroic-games-launcher using system's electron but is failing for me

It would be very beneficial to only package heroic itself (eg. app.asar and app.asar.unpacked but without the win32 folder)

PR welcome here: https://github.com/FabioLolix/PKGBUILD-AUR_fix/tree/master/h

Stripping and compressing takes this long because it processes all of electron too. It would be very beneficial to only package heroic itself (eg. app.asar and app.asar.unpacked but without the win32 folder)

Save time? You mean while compressing the package?

While stripping

If you've taken care of your Pacnews after updating to Pacman 7, you'll notice that it's faster now.

Haven't

I just built in a clean chroot with stripping enabled and it didn't complain this time. Odd.

Either way, there's no reason to ship Windows binaries.

There's no reason to disable stripping

For what I recall I disabled it to same time

It's complaining about the Windows binaries

What the complain?

@FabioLolix: There's no reason to disable stripping. It's complaining about the Windows binaries, just remove them:

# Remove Windows binaries
  rm -rv "${pkgdir}/opt/heroic/resources/app.asar.unpacked/build/bin/x64/win32/"

upstream using a custom version of electron which supports DRM, while it is not supported in the Arch packages

That is no longer true, Heroic has reverted back to using standard electron. See here
