For anyone who hasn't discovered this already, you can ameliorate the impact of delayed AUR version updates by setting the following in your ~/.config/discordcanary/settings.json file:

{
  // preceding settings (add a trailing comma ,)
  "SKIP_HOST_UPDATE": true
}

discord-canary-0.0.500.tar.gz is either corrupted on multiple servers or the sha512sum is in fact invalid

This will let the first person who runs into this flag the aur repo quickly and easily with the newest version.

I don't know what's going on, but it looks like Discord is releasing new canary versions everyday. since 15 Nov. there was every day an update.

new version

djtheredstoner commented on 2023-09-04 18:40 (UTC) (edited on 2023-09-04 18:41 (UTC) by djtheredstoner)

Would it be possible for this package to change to default Discord window class ("discord") to something more unique ("discordcanary") to prevent canary Discord windows from combining with stable windows due to them sharing a window class? This can be done as follows:

  1. Rename resources/app.asar to some other name (for example _app.asar).
  2. Create a new folder called app.asar inside resources.
  3. Create a package.json file inside the folder:
{
  "name": "discordcanary",
  "main": "index.js"
}

The name property is used by electron as the window's class.

  1. Create an index.js file in the folder:
require("../_app.asar");
  1. Update the discord-canary.desktop file to set the StartupWMClass to discordcanary

Edit: apologies for the formatting, I can't get the markdown numbering to work right.
