Please remove the dependency on the meta-package gcc-libs and replace it with the specific libraries this package depends on: https://archlinux.org/todo/gcc-libs-deprecation/

or~/.config/codium-flags.conf

This package does not read ~/.config/electron35-flags.conf and ~/.config/electron-flags.conf, making it inconvenient to persist custom parameters. Could you add logic to read these two files? (Refer to the WIKI)

@Richardn

No worries, I was on manjaro at the time and the repo's were not updated. The new version installed just fine after syncing the repo's for the dependencies.

I do see a strange issue now, that might be more related to electron. I'm unable to save files as sudo with this package. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=282251

It seems like there is 2 issues, 1 the path for the binary doesn't detect that it is in: "/usr/bin/coidium" and instead goes into the electron path "/usr/lib/electron<version>/bin/codium"

But if I workaround that issue, I still see another issue: "/usr/bin/pkexec" --disable-internal-agent /bin/bash -c "echo SUDOPROMPT; \"/usr/lib/electron35/bin/codium\" --file-write \"/home/kjayakum/.config/VSCodium/code-elevated-uWsBKhbS\"" Using --file-write with invalid arguments.

Not sure how to properly solve either, but this doesn't happen in the binary distributions.

@KarthikJay sorry for the late response. I myself did not encounter that during building the last version, and I just updated this package to the latest version and also did not encounter any errors. I suppose what you bumped into were transient network errors.

Getting an error 404 when trying this command in the build script:

Any ideas how to fix?

@fnrir Your proposed change has been applied.

@oech3 This package is designed in a way such that user can modify the electron version used. The provided electron version is just a suggestion (based on upstream). However if one is using an AUR helper while changing the PKGBUILD file, a lot of weird interactions can happen, i.e. some dependency requirements being cached, etc etc. So there is a basic sanity check there.

Unsetting DISPLAY on Wayland breaks running non-Wayland apps in the terminal

! which $_electron check does nothing since it is installed automatically.

@Damgaldor is this something peculiar to my package? Based on some initial search I figured it might be an old unfixed issue in vscode, or more accurately, an issue with the sudo-prompt dependency.

I checked the vscodium-bin package on AUR. It also does not look like it will install something under /usr/lib/{$electron}/.
