The freetube.desktop file of the maintainer builds has the MimeType field, could you add it as well?

@picokan Yes, I can confirm this was an issue with the app itself, and it is resolved with the next release, 0.11.2 beta, as reported in this ticket:

I'm sorry, "run makepkg as you normally would" is incorrect, you need to use the -e flag to not re-extract the source code and overwrite your changes.

@greektex This is a bug on the developer side. For some reason his scripts had a hiccup and failed to mark this version as 0.11.1 in the package.json file. You can fix it manually by running makepkg -o, which will download only the source code and apply patches. Then go into the src directory and change the version in package.json to be 0.11.1 and run makepkg as you normally would.

I applied the recent update, but the app identifies itself as version v0.11.0 Beta in the "About" section and I get a notification on the starting page that I should update to v 0.11.1 Beta.

However, I would think that this is the version that I have installed?! Here is the output during makepkg:

Thanks a lot @picokan !

picokan commented on 2020-12-26 16:42 (UTC)

I apologise for the recent inconvenience and frequently updating freetube and freetube-bin, but the way it was using the system electron before was poor and I thought the change was worth it. You should note that with this update the package size went from ~200MB to ~100MB and that it will now share the electron package with other programs like element-desktop.

je-vv commented on 2020-12-25 01:19 (UTC)

@picokan, nothing broke, thanks a lot !

picokan commented on 2020-12-24 19:07 (UTC)

I've added the modifications to use the system electron according to the tips I've been given. Please test and warn me if something broke.
