Build in a clean chroot or at least use makepkg and see if it works there. If so, then it's a problem with your AUR helper.

heyo i have a build error that gives two different types of build codes and i dont know what either of them mean and i cant find anything online about it. im using yay to download btw. the error too: 1 failedTask=build stackTraceError: /home/minty2/.chache/yay/vesktop/src/Vesktop-1.6.1/node_modules/app-builder-bin/linux/x64/app-builder process failed ERR_ELECTRON_BUILDER_CANNOT_EXECUTE Exit code: 1 if anyone can help that would be apreciated :3

@Edu4rdSHL oh okay, I tried with and without my VPN at this moment but didn't restart between these two tries. I'll check it out. Thank you. :)

That's a problem with your network, jeudii.

Hi, I have an error when I try to build vesktop : ⨯ Get "https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/download/v39.0.0/electron-v39.0.0-linux-x64.zip": dial tcp: lookup github.com on [::1]:53: read udp [::1]:53933->[::1]:53: read: connection refused github.com/develar/app-builder/pkg/download.(Downloader).follow.func1 /Users/runner/work/app-builder/app-builder/pkg/download/downloader.go:206 github.com/develar/app-builder/pkg/download.(Downloader).follow /Users/runner/work/app-builder/app-builder/pkg/download/downloader.go:234 github.com/develar/app-builder/pkg/download.(Downloader).DownloadNoRetry /Users/runner/work/app-builder/app-builder/pkg/download/downloader.go:128 github.com/develar/app-builder/pkg/download.(Downloader).Download /Users/runner/work/app-builder/app-builder/pkg/download/downloader.go:112 github.com/develar/app-builder/pkg/electron.(ElectronDownloader).doDownload /Users/runner/work/app-builder/app-builder/pkg/electron/electronDownloader.go:203 github.com/develar/app-builder/pkg/electron.(ElectronDownloader).Download /Users/runner/work/app-builder/app-builder/pkg/electron/electronDownloader.go:188 github.com/develar/app-builder/pkg/electron.downloadElectron.func1.1 /Users/runner/work/app-builder/app-builder/pkg/electron/electronDownloader.go:73 github.com/develar/app-builder/pkg/util.MapAsyncConcurrency.func2 /Users/runner/work/app-builder/app-builder/pkg/util/async.go:68 runtime.goexit /Users/runner/hostedtoolcache/go/1.21.13/arm64/src/runtime/asm_amd64.s:1650 ⨯ /home/jeudii/AUR/vesktop/src/Vesktop-1.6.1/node_modules/app-builder-bin/linux/x64/app-builder process failed ERR_ELECTRON_BUILDER_CANNOT_EXECUTE Exit code: 1 failedTask=build stackTrace=Error: /home/jeudii/AUR/vesktop/src/Vesktop-1.6.1/node_modules/app-builder-bin/linux/x64/app-builder process failed ERR_ELECTRON_BUILDER_CANNOT_EXECUTE Exit code: 1 at ChildProcess.<anonymous> (/home/jeudii/AUR/vesktop/src/Vesktop-1.6.1/node_modules/builder-util/src/util.ts:259:14) at Object.onceWrapper (node:events:623:26) at ChildProcess.emit (node:events:508:28) at maybeClose (node:internal/child_process:1085:16) at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:304:5)  ELIFECYCLE  Command failed with exit code 1. ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

Hi, thanks for the reports. Should be fixed now.

I got the same error as @Ltrinch when building in a clean chroot.

When trying to update vesktop via yay, I get the following error. Clearing the cache didn't help. Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

install: cannot stat 'dist/.icon-set/icon_1024.png': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().

 -> error making: vesktop-exit status 4

@Edu4rdSHL Maybe you should look into nvm? I think it can manage multiple nodejs installs locally, so you can have the nodejs version that the package requires to be installed. If you take a look at vscodium, you can see how nvm can be used to manage a nodejs install for a package specifically. Maybe this will help you.

If you want to officially support a package that uses your upstream build, go to vesktop-bin. Base packages are meant to be compiled from scratch on the AUR.

I cannot talk about who said what or how anybody acted, but I know from personal experiences that whenever an upstream project tries to create a PKGBUILD for the aur, things can happen. Sometimes, they can be good. Other times, they can be bad. I know an upstream AUR package that has zero dependencies listed. Or, sometimes, they created an automated PKGBUILD generator and don't touch it all until somebody does it for them.

If an AUR maintainer says what you're doing is not the best thing to do, then you should hear them out. Clean chroot builds with extra-x86_64-build are important to ensure everything works. If you want to have a package where it uses pre-made Linux binaries, go to vesktop-bin.
