I think I tried removing the cache previously and it didn't work, anyway thanks to your comment about yay I installed paru and tried with that and it worked, thanks

Hey that looks like yay is trying to do some unusual stuff haha

try and remove electron-castlab-bin-debug and libelectron-debug because they're not needed, clear your pacman cache and try again

I have some issues with this package. yay started notifying me that my version was newer than the one in aur (I think it was 1.1.0 against the version before 1.0.15-1), so I uninstalled it and now I can't install it anymore. The error I get is

I tried doing a clean build, removing the folders under debug from the message, installing electron-castlab-bin first, removing netflix folders under ~.local and ~.config to no avail

Thank you, it is working now. Life is good.

Yep I set the binary name in the path incorrectly, I am applying a update to correct it, thanks for informing me on this issue.

did a fresh install of Netflix and still am getting it and i checked that i have electron-castlab-bin installed.

That's because you your system didn't install the package dependency electron-castlab-bin when you updated netflix

I am getting this now.

netflix /usr/bin/netflix: line 4: electroncastlab: command not found

1.0.15 does fixes the issue @TwistedXenos, just update and the problem should be resolved.

Hey @TwistedXenos, No sorry this was a patch to fix a graphical glitch on the the app Windows that was caused by a KDE patch that was no longer needed to fix KDE + Nvidia and started causing issues on Gnome.

As for the bug I can also confirm it, I was forced to buy Netflix membership just to test this as I don't use it or have anyone else using it currently so I will have to find a workaround to fix this issue because for some reason from my assumption it's not using Widevine DRM.
