@shore this could happen with packages build from source, this pkgbuild also need electron15 (from source if you don't use the -bin version), you can use the -bin variants and comment here with less exclamation marks which is annoying to read

give up, it cost me more than 3+ hour and 5+ GB of downloading and still installing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@AlbertoAru Building Marktext from source is always a huge headache. The only sane way to build this package is using a clean CHROOT with exactly the dependencies needed and nothing else. Your error suggests you have a NodeJS version too new to build this with. You can use Arch's makechrootpkg tooling to do this, or just use the prebuilt packages in my user repository.

I tried several times installing marktext, and it's painful (here's last error I got). I ended up installing marktext-bin, which installed marktext in a moment and works greatly so far.

@alerque: There's a typo on line 77, so no icons are install except for the unnecessary, gigantic PNG installed in pixmaps.

-   find -name maktext.png -exec \
+   find -name "$pkgname.png" -exec \

@AlbertoAru I tried to build marktext-git with my patch in a clean chroot (build with extra-x86_64-build), and it seems good. This patch is also used in some unofficial repo like ArchLinuxcn.

But I have not tried to build the tag release. So I think using vcs package (marktext-git) is a good choice.

@cubercsl I tried what your patch and got an error (see below).

I used this method to edit the PKBUILD package and compile from there. I must say, though, that my PKBUILD had electron15 instead of electron11 and cd "$_archive" instead of cd "$pkgname". I did not modified this last part (with cd "$_archive" instead of cd "$pkgname")

This is with cd "$pkgname" instead of cd "$_archive"

The file exists because I've been editing it and I have it opened with kate:

@chrislea it is because the _electronDist is /usr/lib/electron not /usr/bin

In the past /usr/bin/electron is a symlink of /usr/lib/electron/electron but now it is a wrapper. You can check my patch at marktext-git for reference.
