Arch Linux User Repository

I updated the package now.

** PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT **

The project switched to pnpm and the PKGBUILD would need to get updated accordingly. I'm not using arch anymore (nix btw!) so would step down as a maintainer/owner. Contact me at jikstra at riseup dot net

v28.2.3 now.

Upstream uses electron26. This package needs to be updated.

1.43.0 - 2024-02-14

Update electron from v26.6.0 to version v26.6.3

To note that this package build without cargo, rust, rustup at all

rustup conflicts with rust and so gives the user no choice if he wants to keep rust installed.

Some pkgbuilds explicity need rustup (not the case here in this moment), users can use devtools https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot to build in clean chroot, also paru and aurutils should do that

Can you please move all the download stuff out from build() into prepare(), so that no internet connection is needed during build()?:

Regards and thanks for maintaining!

Is rustup really explicitly needed as make dependency? Can you not use cargo (which is provided both by rust and rustup package)? rustup conflicts with rust and so gives the user no choice if he wants to keep rust installed.

Regards!
