Edit (Nov 18, 2021): This package now uses the LTS Gallium version of nodejs but uses current npm - thanks!

I received this error below. Did this happen because something in the build process expects newer and current Node.js version than the fermium LTS version?

Hello, arangelololo. Can you please confirm if you are using this package and not signal-desktop-beta-bin? Also, is the issue reproducible with signal-desktop from official repos or signal-desktop-beta-bin?

And please link the issue that you have opened in the upstream repo.

The mk (Macedonian) translation of Signal-Desktop does not load. My locale is changed to mk_MK.UTF8 and I can see the mk translations for GNOME for instance but not for Signal-Desktop.

The upstream project suggest to report a bug with the third party that created the package prior to reporting it there? Can you please check if this works for you or if there's something you can do about it?

Thanks!

Edit (Nov 16, 2021): I accidentally fixed this issue by relinking to the Signal mobile app, after I moved to a new device.

I wonder if anyone else is having an issue with Signal Desktop Beta. (I doubt the cause is from the AUR package, but I'd like to be sure.)

For the latest two versions (v5.16.0-beta.1 and v5.15.0-beta.2) in the past 3 days, I haven't been able to use the Beta version because a warning in a red box shows up with the contents of:

This version of Signal Desktop has expired. Please upgrade to the latest version to continue messaging. Clicl to go to signal.org/download

This is what it looks like: https://i.imgur.com/DlssuXc.jpg

The bad part about this warning is that I an unable to do anything once this warning comes up.

I am not sure if I unintentionally set this glitch because 3 versions ago (in v5.15.0-beta.1) - I was able to change the Beta's settings to notify if there are new updates or to attempt auto-updating - and then the options subsequently disappeared in the latest 2 versions, potentially leaving me unable to change these now gone options. (Since I'd have to use AUR methods to update, not get an auto-update, like in Windows or MacOS.)

Thanks for fixing it quickly!

Hm, I seem to be getting another validity check error:

What can I do? I received a validation error when running $ makepkg -si:

==> Validating source files with sha512sums...
    signal-desktop-beta-5.10.0beta1.tar.gz ... FAILED
    signal-desktop-beta.desktop ... Passed

Edit: Thanks for fixing it! (Didn't get to say earlier)
