Ahoj @emnichtda,
thanks for report. Something has changed upstream.
Fixed (although now less icon files will be installed).
Hey, I've been having issues with building the package lately. It fails at package() with
install: cannot stat 'element-desktop/res/img/element.png': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().
Aborting...
-> error making: schildichat-desktop-git-exit status 4
any1 else? any fix?
Please report issues related to the build process or dependencies here in the comments.
lite to master or sc.Regards!
I've added you as co-maintainer. I'll disown it as soon as you signal me you're okay with that
I am OK with that.
Regards!
Considering I've been terrible at maintaining it for the past few months (sorry about that!): gladly! Thanks for having taken care of it for a while now!

Turned out that
I needed to apply the quick-and-dirty patch
workaround_issue_265.patchto work arround this issue
was due to "too new" electron version.
↗ Latest working version is indeed electron30, my fault, now corrected in ↗ my local variant of the PKGBUILD.
By the way, I am willing to maintain this package, if you want to hand it over.
Regards!
