@wolfheart I use a wrapper /usr/bin/obsidian to enable passing flags to Electron (just like what chrome and vscode do).
The former version includes a install script that links /opt/Obsidian/obsidian to /usr/bin/obsidian, so there's a conflict. The install script will remove the link when you uninstall the package. So you can uninstall the former version first and then install the new one.

It fails to upgrade when a file "/usr/bin/obsidian" already exists.

Apologies, @NekoLovo. I should have noticed that.

@shawny 1.10.2 is for catalyst version. This package only provides public version

@shawny Sorry I didn’t notice that

@NekoLOvO, is the package abandoned? It's months behind latest release. Please advise.

If appgrid means desktop entry, it is masked by NoExtract and requests to remove them is pending.

@oech3 I don't actually know what your concern is. I don't think rebuilding native modules(like electron) can solve capability issues because capability issue doesn't mean the modules have errors.
And the extra/obsidian is a repackage using obsidan's source code, this package is a binary package provide by obsidian official from their github release page, they are not the same package.
Furthermore, I don't actually like installing electron separately(if you install extra/obsidian, electron34 is a dependency, and there will be a electron34 in your appgrid, that's annoying), and this package provides a build-in electron, so there won't be a electron in your appgrid

Is it have a chance to fix by rebuilding native modules? I'm not sure is it allowed at official package: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/obsidian/-/blob/main/Packaging%20permission%20from%20Arch%20Linux.eml?ref_type=heads
