DeveloperWiki:Building in a clean chroot

TLDR; extra-x86_64-build.

@rodrigo21 can you explain me how to build it in a clean chroot?

@D.Dave Try building in a clean chroot.

I cannot update it, because today it fails with the following error message: node: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.69: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

On my system I have libicui18n.so.72 instead.

I am experiencing the same error as @alexdandrea, however his patch fails on me.

vdhcoapp-build.patch is created fine, but its sum does not match with the one added in the PKGBUILD, and if I force it, then the prepare() function fails anyway.

The package is currently broken as the final generated binary fails to start.

The error message looks like this:

$ vdhcoapp
pkg/prelude/bootstrap.js:1359
      throw error;
      ^

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: Must use import to load ES Module: /snapshot/vdhcoapp-1.6.3/node_modules/flatted/cjs/index.js
require() of ES modules is not supported.
require() of /snapshot/vdhcoapp-1.6.3/node_modules/flatted/cjs/index.js from /snapshot/vdhcoapp-1.6.3/node_modules/log4js/lib/LoggingEvent.js is an ES module file as it is a .js file whose nearest parent package.json contains "type": "module" which defines all .js files in that package scope as ES modules.
Instead rename index.js to end in .cjs, change the requiring code to use import(), or remove "type": "module" from /snapshot/vdhcoapp-1.6.3/node_modules/flatted/package.json.

It can be fixed with this diff to the AUR package:

For Brave and Vivaldi, there is an open pull request that supposedly fixes the configuration of this companion app:

https://github.com/mi-g/vdhcoapp/pull/110/files

Same problem than @Pietro_Pizzi with Google Chrome 98.0.4758.80. But If I install it manually from targz file works: https://www.downloadhelper.net/install-coapp?browser=chrome#extra-targz64
