Hook keeps /usr/bin/electron is symlink to /usr/bin/electronNM where electronNM is latest installed electron. /usr/lib/electron is symlink to /usr/lib/electronNM where electronNM is latest installed electron.

If no electron* is installed, /usr/bin/electron could be echo Please install one of electron package; exit 1.

(This could be installed even no electron* are installed. This is really probrematic. But it is impossible to solve...)

Should be pacman hook instead of launcher.

What should the pacman hook do? Thanks!

This breaks packages expecting actual bins and libs at /usr/lib/electron/*.so e.g. libffmpeg.so. Should be pacman hook instead of launcher.
