@qenya, --no-sandbox fix problem.

@FabioLolix itch-setup working. itch not running.

Note that this is itch-setup that download the upstream version in your home, can't do electron substitution and I'm not practical with that anyway

I haven't had the problem so far

I've seen about itch-bin and subscribed to that github issue last year to keep an eye on it

I get the same thing as @iiiypuk (on KDE Plasma 5.27.8 over Wayland).

Suspect it's the same bug as the one mentioned a year and a half ago by @Duder963, documented upstream, that the ancient bundled version of Electron doesn't work with current glibc - the --no-sandbox workaround mentioned in that GitHub bug worked for me, although I suspect there are security implications that mean it's not a great long-term solution.

As mentioned in the GitHub bug, itch-bin works around it by patching it with a newer version of Electron, but that package has its own problems (erroneously using the beta build channel).

I don't know enough about the build process to know whether this package could do something similar.

@iiiypuk can't replicate, what if you launch from command line itch-setup?

Closed w/o errors. Log file clear :)

Why is the source code being downloaded? //Never mind, it's for the icons. Sorry then.

@begin-theadventu you are confusing itch and itch-setup which are 2 different things

On my application launcher the name for the itch entry is "itch.desktop". Wouldn't it be better if the displayed name was "Itch"?

EDIT: I just read the desktop file. Why is it set up to display "itch.desktop" specifically with the italian locale? lol

The package itch-bin has a workaround which is discussed on this Github issue.
