There is now an update out for the chrome_crashpad_handler.

Tried to download the 8.10.0 binary and I can run it successfully

After a quick look around, I notice that /opt/gitkraken/*.so and /opt/gitkraken/chrome_crashpad_handler was not correctly as permission as 0755

Manually set permission for those files to 0755 make gitkraken start successfully

Hope the author updates the PKGBUILD to fix this

The 8.10.0 binary from https://www.gitkraken.com/download/linux-gzip also works, so this must be indeed connected to the package.

It doesn't work for me. Same error. I think downgrading to 8.9 is the only way for now, until Gitkraken fixes this. The steps shared by alorence worked nicely.

Anyway, since I really need this tool to work, I manually downgraded to 8.9:

git clone git@github.com:Azd325/gitkraken.git /var/tmp/pamac-build-${USER}/gitkraken-8.9
cd /var/tmp/pamac-build-${USER}/gitkraken-8.9
git checkout c89ab0e
makepkg -si

Hope this will help others, until the issue is solved

@Azd325 I have an AMD card and having the same issue, so not related

alorence commented on 2022-10-11 08:41 (UTC)

@Azd325 I can see the changelog mention that GitKraken now depends on electron17 (https://help.gitkraken.com/gitkraken-client/current/#improvements-%f0%9f%99%8c)

I don't know how this pkg depends on electron, but maybe it's related ? I tried to manually install electron17 (i only had 'electron' which is currently v20 and 'electron19') but nothing changed

Indeed, I have an Nvidia graphic card. But the solutions from SO answers didn't work. The issue does not seem to be related to GPU acceleration. I have the same error message when launching GK with '--in-process-gpu' or '--disable-gpu' option.

I use GitKraken for years now and used previous versions from AUR for months, without any issue. It worked perfectly yesterday, but started to crash today, thats why my first hypothesis was the migration from 8.9 to 8.10. I still investigate to try to find the root cause.

naraesk commented on 2022-10-11 08:21 (UTC)

Same here after updating to 8.10.0, worked fine before.

Do you run with a Nvidia card? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70893329/gitkraken-crash-on-fedora-gpu-process-isnt-usable-goodbye
