Arch Linux User Repository

This is where nvm comes into play. See Nodejs package guidelines. Upstream uses Node 14.

nodejs conflict:

:: There are 3 providers available for nodejs<17:
:: Repositorycommunity
    1) nodejs-lts-erbium 2) nodejs-lts-fermium 3) nodejs-lts-gallium

Picking one of these options will result in

:: nodejs-lts-erbium and nodejs are in conflict.

As such, one cannot update, nor install.

Seems to break because of openssl_fips not defined error. A more concise log snippet:

Has a problem retrieving dependence:

error: failed retrieving file 'electron12-12.2.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst' from arch.mirror.constant.com : The requested URL returned error: 404

-> electron12 not satisfied, flushing install queue

Breaks on npm after that, can comment log if necessary

Thank you @zhullyb for adopting, and fixing this package! It is greatly appreciated.

Now you can download an appimage from their website ready to work without any installation. The only requisite is to install previously the "libappimage" package from the extra repository.
