It appears the my discord asar was overwritten by the last discord update.
Wouldn't it make sense for this package to provide an alpm hook to automatically reinstall the app.asar whenever discord updates? (also cp should be used instead of mv as the pacakge manager gets confused that previously tracked files aren't there anymore)
How I can modify hokks for other packages?
@Kamack38 discord-canary providing discord probably wont happen, since multiple-client installs would not work anymore. I don't see adding discord to opt-depends as an issue though, since actually discovering that there is something like openasar requires using discord extensively in the first place, right?
Anyway, could you modify the post-install hook for discord-canary-electron-bin also?
@Sir-Photch to make this work I would have to add discord to optional dependencies as the discord canary package doesn't actually 'provide' discord. The best way solve it would be to edit the discord canary PKGBUILD to provide discord.
so apparently you can't have discord-canary installed first and use this package since it will install discord as well. is there any way to circumvent this?
I also suggest adding support for discord-canary-electron-bin, the only difference here being that the app.asar file needs to be moved to /usr/lib/discord-canary instead of /opt/discord.
Can you also add a hook, such that the asar file will replace itself again when discord is being updated? thx

Hi! I need your help. Could you please add comments with discord versions you want to be supported? I would be very grateful if you included the path to the
app.asarfile in your comment.
