sorry to write here, I am not any kind of a developer at all, but I am experiencing some graphical glitches on recent releases of your element-web and element-desktop, say the tray icon on KDE on the lower right bottom of screen (next to clock) sometimes is only an empty space, and I found some issue at github element-hq directly talking about electron 28.x requirement, as far as I understand your packages here are using 27.x, the actual pointer in the github issue was refering to: https://github.com/element-hq/element-desktop/blob/develop/package.json#L98

thanks.

I guess you mean 28 vs. 29? Currently we only have nodejs-electron-28.x packaged. And the package.json you referenced is for the development branch. The package.json for element-desktop 1.11.60 (https://github.com/element-hq/element-desktop/blob/v1.11.60/package.json#L98) is requiring electron version 28.

So currently we do have a supported electron version, so the issue might be unrelated to the electron version.

actually you are right, sorry, the version comment I found back then on github on an issue about icons being invisible, back then still electron 27 vs electron 28, was at: https://github.com/element-hq/element-desktop/issues/1447

then it might be some other graphics glitching reason.

Replying to your email: i try to stick close to whatever electron version is recommended for vscode, as:

  • it's so much code it's hard to backport/revert patches if something breaks, and
  • vscode can load third-party-code (extensions)

I remember that i had to hold back one electron version (23?) a few weeks because the changes in node 18 broke some vscode extensions (while they did not break the IDE itself)

Electron 29 is the first version which is based on node 20, so it might be delayed again (I haven't started packaging it yet)

It will take even longer to package — Electron 29 seems to require rust for building now.
