itch v23.5.1 was just published, it depends on npm>=5.5.1 which doesn't have the prune problems many have encountered earlier. Upgrading is strongly recommended as we've had to upgrade the itch.io login endpoint and older versions will stop working eventually (in cases where filling out a captcha is required). v23.5.1 also ships with electron 1.6.15, which fixes many small issues in the Chromium component, including security issues. See https://github.com/electron/electron/releases for details. Thanks for your patience everyone!

Quick update on the state of this package: - I was hoping to ship itch v25 quick enough - In the meantime, many users just 1) didn't update itch or 2) switched to `kitch` (the beta build) - Since v25 is taking so long, I'm going to ship another point release of v23 tomorrow (monday november 6th), fixing the arch package (since we found a workaround in the meantime) Note that the build broke because of an npm upgrade, and that v23.4.2 contains 0 changes for Linux, only windows (so it didn't matter that it was outdated)

@fettouhi you have to change the SHA256 checksum in PKGBUILD to 422651ae84d53c82136af8f27bb77ff37d69916cc5ddde42cdb9e54cbf193fc9 (the checksum of the github archive changed for unknown reason)

Can anyoone install this at the moment I get an error regarding the sha256sums.

A word of caution about kitch: It's currently 850+ commits ahead of the stable version, many parts of the app have been rewritten. However, I *have* very recently changed the release scripts so it doesn't matter which version of npm is used when building kitch (it just doesn't do `npm prune` at all). I'm hoping for a prompt release of the next version, and there's always downgrading npm as a workaround for the current version!

If you have issues with itch, you can try the development version called kitch. It worked fine for me.

@onizou I'm a native French speaker, so I'm looking over your suggestions now & approving most of them. Thanks! Note that the app has self-update for locales, so as soon as I'm done updating them, they'll appear in whatever version of the app you're currently running. I'm also looking to submit a PR to npm to help 5.4.0 ship faster and/or find a solution that doesn't rely on "npm prune"

thanks - running "npm install -g npm@5.2.0" has fixed it for now.

Oh and since I have the opportunity: I made many suggestions to correct and improve the french translation of itch. But there seems to be too few french-speaking translators to validate them. Some have been automatically accepted, but the huge majority remains on hold. What can I do so that they are accepted and arrive on the next version on AUR?
