PSA: This now uses electron-forge instead of electron-builder. If anyone has any ideas how to build it with the system Electron like before, let me know.

libxss is indeed a hard dependency - fixed. As far as I can determine, java-runtime is certainly not a dependency (at least ytmdesktop and it's bundled electron does not make use of it).

install file removed - thanks, did not know this has changed.

I'll fix some of the other issues shortly (a couple of them I am skeptical about...) - right now, this is failing to build.

@yochananmarqos In the link library part, you forgot the first / before opt:

.........\/ you need a / here

ln -s "opt/${pkgname%-git}/youtube-music-desktop-app" "$pkgdir/usr/bin/${pkgname%-git}"

  • Don't create unnecessary variables
  • This does not appear to be available for all architectures
  • The license is CC0 1.0 Universal (CC0-1.0) and is in /src/ytmdesktop. You don't need to copy the electron or chromium licenses anywhere, they're already included. Licenses go in /usr/share/licenses/*pkgname*.
  • Electron applications require both nss and libxss. It also appears java-runtime is required.
  • The install file is not required. The desktop cache is updated automatically since pacman 5.0
  • Use a temporary npm cache instead of polluting the user's home directory. See package guidelines
  • Loose files should be installed in /opt/
  • Use install instead of mkdir
