bad pkgver() for x86_64 ?
After update my version is now insider-1 and not 17XXXXXXXX-X !
After update yay want always update : aur/visual-studio-code-insiders-bin insider-1 -> 1700112950-1
same with git and makepkg, result is visual-studio-code-insiders-bin-insider-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
@greyltc that's already the case. Here's the makepkg output on x86:
$ makepkg

could this be changed to only fetch the bin that matches our architecture by default?
I get this error while upgrading it in Manjaro:

Is the script or the website of vscode broken?
Can you remove the --no-sandbox flag, please?
Tested locally and seems to work; aligns with the visual-studio-code-bin package
@rightaditya I use plasma wayland. I found that code-insiders runs under xwayland by default, its wmclass is "code - insiders", but when I add the startup parameters "--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland- -enable-wayland-ime" makes it run under wayland, its wmclass is "code-insiders-url-handler"
I'm having this issue where VSCode gets a generic gear icon in my dock, with tooltip text "code-insiders-url-handler". lg confirms that that's the wmclass for it. Setting StartupWMClass=code-insiders-url-handler in visual-studio-code-insiders.desktop seems to fix things for me. I'm not sure why it's getting set to what it is, or if what I've done might cause other issues down the road, but if not, it might make sense to make the change for this package.
-devel usually refers to source builds with debug symbols included, this is neither. This package is a binary build of insiders.

This package is now automatically updated every day.
No need to build manually or mess with your AUR helpers.
