There might be. The way they are pulling the dependencies for playwright in docker is not compatible with arch. installing it through yarn was the only way I found, but I'm not an expert with yarn, but yeah that is a great point about it stating failure. I will dig into it further, but it should work now as is.

I have no experience with playwright, but isn't there a way to limit what it needs to pull, such as a config file, or some cli switches? The error suggested that the install failed, so I did not bother to check whether it was in fact working.

Yeah, there are a LOT of playwright dependencies. Its why I stopped adding them after linkwarden was able to function correctly. I have a feeling playwright is able to do much more than linkwarden uses it for, hence all the other deps (one of them is cups, and I am very sure linkwarden isn't using that).

Not opposed to tracking down all the other optional dependencies, but that might have to wait until the weekend when I have more time.

I honestly gave up after that, since there was too much to install, and I'm not even certain there weren't any version mismatches

Updated to latest version and made the home directory/shell changes (excellent suggestions).

As for the dependencies, playwright should have everything that it needs to be used by linkwarden. Linkwarden only uses it to create screenshots/pdf copies of your bookmarks. after the install runs, it should have all the deps needed to do these tasks. Was there a breakage due to the other missing libraries? I stopped adding the rest of the deps as it didn't look like they were needed.

From a technical (and security) point of view, would it not be better to have the user's home point at /var/lib/linkwarden, and not have an interactive shell? Something along

u linkwarden - "linkwarden daemon user" /var/lib/linkwarden /usr/bin/nologin

Also, please include the dependencies needed to run playwright, otherwise it is pretty much a manual install.

Never used that workflow before. Found the issue and will have it patched within the hour. Thanks for pointing this out!

EDIT: Yup, this is what I did. Need to step out for a moment but will have it patched soon.

@musta_ruhtinas, not able to reproduce using yay (or a direct makepkg -i after a git clone). What is your build process so I can attempt to reproduce the issue? You are downloading all the files, not just the PKGBUILD correct?
