  It looks like you are trying to use glob syntax (i.e. "*") with esbuild. This syntax is typically handled by your shell, and isn't handled by esbuild itself. You must expand glob syntax first before passing your paths to esbuild.

4.4.0-2 steps back to Electron 25 because of #452. At least temporarily.

Done.

The description needs to be updated to reflect the repository

I actually remember seeing that messages before. But I don't see them with current electron24-bin verison (24.0.0.beta.3-2).

Btw you can also test webcord-bin.

Thanks for the PKGBUILD tip, that's going to be very helpful!

I don't know if it's a issue with webcord itself still, I've just tried checking chrome://gpu on electron24 and the issue still seems to persist, even if I force hardware acceleration on via command line arguments/flags. I understand the switch here was done because webcord's latest official release officially made the jump to electron 24 and there seems to be no other package providing it either on the official repos or AUR, but maybe the electron24-bin AUR package listed as a dependency is broken?

Does anyone else have this issue? If it's not just me, I'll report this on electron24-bin's AUR page!

The switch to Electron 24 seems to have broken hardware acceleration for me

I think it is better to be reported upstream.

Forcing webcord to run using Electron 22 by editing /usr/bin/webcord fixes the issue

You can switch version in PKGBUILD, edit this line:

_electron='electron24'

The switch to Electron 24 seems to have broken hardware acceleration for me, resulting in very bad performance during screensharing/video calls. The page chrome://gpu reports all kind of hardware acceleration to be off and webcord reports this error in the terminal:

[62561:0413/202010.997321:ERROR:gl_factory.cc(128)] Requested GL implementation (gl=desktop-gl,angle=none) not found in allowed implementations: [(gl=egl-angle,angle=default),(gl=egl-gles2,angle=none)].

Forcing webcord to run using Electron 22 by editing /usr/bin/webcord fixes the issue

Probably goes without saying, but deleting config.json will delete webcord's settings, so if you've enabled/disabled certain permissions you'll have to redo those.

Edit: also FWIW I didn't have to delete this file, YMMV

Update 4.2.0 wants to use Electron 24 only, so deps are changed accordingly.

Also for me deleting old config.json was required to run the app.
