Arch Linux User Repository

Nativefier is lagging behind Electron, unfortunately. Electron 19 is the last tested version, and Electron 21 is the last bug-free one. In 22+ there’s a problem with external links. Both 19 and 21 are EOL, so I’m choosing to stick to 19, for the least amount of surprises.

To avoid the problems with dynamic libraries I recommend installing electron19-bin.

i'm not the most knowledgeable about this stuff but this is the problem i experienced and what i've observed.

this (todoist-nativefier) package still relies on electron19. electron19 relies on libicu version 72, but version 73.2-1 seems to be all that's available in the repos, so launching todoist-nativefier fails with the error /usr/lib/electron19/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.72: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

i have electron25 installed, so i simply used whereis to find todoist-nativefier (says it is located at /usr/bin/todoist-nativefier), and then modified that bash script to read exec electron25 /usr/share/todoist-nativefier "$@" (rather than electron19)

hope this helps someone!

It seems that google does not like the user agent you are using. It does not allow authentication with a google account

this comment seems to have a workaround

--user-agent "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:70.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/70.0" \

switching the user agent to this allows logging in via Google as per this issue: https://github.com/nativefier/nativefier/issues/831
