Hi,
Vault was released today (2025.02.06) with version 17.0.0. Previous version: 16.11.3 Theoretically a big version change, but I only see the electron version change as big.
I use it often on linux and android, I haven't experienced any problems so far. Please let me know if you experience any problems.

Hi. Former maintainer here.
The issue is that the software is built for x86_64 (and the stuff it depends on and comes with is, too) and you run arm64. Different CPU architecture. Having a maintainer who is enthusiastic about ARM won't change that incompatibility.
Also. This application is a glorified version of the Keeper Web Vault you access via web browser. That's why Electron is mentioned.
I recommended you contact Keeper directly. If they will build it for ARM, it can then be implemented here (and you can be said ARM enthusiast and maintainer). :)
Maybe someday a second person will try to install Keeper on aarch64 Linux and they'll think about supporting it :)
Keeper password manager is an electron-based application, so you may see chrome references.
You don't need to install the chrome browser for electron applications, because chromium and nodejs contain all the necessary components embedded in a binary: https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/
Keeper did not create an arm64 debian package: https://keepersecurity.com/desktop_electron/SHASUM256.txt This PKGBUILD always downloads the amd64 debian package, no matter if you change the platform:
source=("https://keepersecurity.com/desktop_electron/Linux/repo/deb/keeperpasswordmanager_${pkgver}_amd64.deb"
If you download the debian package and unpack it (or e.g. makepkg -s), you can see in the control.tar.xz/control file that the architecture of the package is amd64. From this, I think that this package cannot be run on arm-based machines. If I'm wrong, I'll be happy :)
Looking at this with fresh eyes, it may be simply that the Keeper .deb being retrieved is for amd64, and I am on arm64. Likely for this package, one does not simply set arch=aarch64.
I see many references in /usr/lib/keeperpasswordmanager/ to chrome and chromium. Is this referring to the Google products? Is it relying on Chrome to be installed on the machine? I do not have Chrome installed.
I may try starting from the top, now that I have a little better understanding. I'll pacman -R the package, do a fresh git clone, update the sha512 with the bumpversion.sh script that I failed to notice the first time, add aarch64, and makepkg -sic. No chmods this time, as that didn't make a difference and I am not updating from a previous version. I'll report my results here. Maybe I just missed something the first time.
@brnl: Thanks for reply. For context, I'm running Manjaro because it shipped with Pinebook Pro, and I had no reason to change. Had for a couple years, but only now committing to Linux as daily driver. This is only the third package I have tried to install from AUR. I have only ever followed advice from Arch forums; didn't even know pamac existed LOL.
If I recall correctly, I had to add aarch64 as a target, and update the sha512 for the latest version in the PKGBUILD. Then I built with: $ makepkg -sic
@forgetfulSpies: If applicable; Please don't forget to run pamac as normal user for AUR builds. Running with sudo might sometimes result in unexpected problems.
Running Manjaro ARM with KDE Plasma. Package seemed to install successfully. However, keeperpasswordmanager.desktop terminates after launching. Icon appears in the taskbar, but never displays an interface.
Tried running the chmod 755 commands. Installed version is 16.11.1. This was a first-time install. There is no swiftshader directory.
I cant install :(
