Rebuild isn't enough after the last electron update. Dependency needs to be changed to the previous version.

Start might randomly work though. After a rebuild, I'm able to get it start 1/10 of the time.

@darktohka The v.0.19.1 was using an older electron, I've updated it now that 0.19.2 came out.

@doblerone I don't have any crashes when playing a video, so I can't debug it for you. You'll have to debug it yourself and see if it's a problem with how I packaged freetube or if it's a problem with freetube itself and open an issue in its github repo.

Please update as it crashes on my system when trying to reproduce a video: Renderer process crashed - see https://www.electronjs.org/docs/tutorial/application-debugging for potential debugging information.

Hello, can you please upgrade the PKGBUILD to use electron28? Freetube is now targeting Electron version 28, not 22

@chrrybmb I saw this, but I haven't added it as a dependency because I can't replicate it. Even when I compile and run freetube without ttf-liberation it runs without any of the text glitches in that issue, so I'm not completely convinced that it is the cause.

ttf-liberation should be added as a dependency.

@yochananmarqos Thank you, I changed the commands and removed the npm dependency.

@sp1cyf0x That doesn't look like a Freetube specific error, can you check that the file /usr/lib/libdav1d.so.7 exists?

I'm getting /usr/lib/electron22/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libdav1d.so.7: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory after electron 22.3.25-2 update.

@picokan: This does not use npm, only yarn.

  export YARN_CACHE_FOLDER="$srcdir/yarn-cache"
  yarn install
  yarn run build

I thought electron20 was still an officially supported package in Arch, but I guess not :\. I'll update it to electron22 which is what the git release is using. Not officially supported by Freetube, but it should work.
