@ithod not sure how to resolve the fedora deps. My latest change didn't really help: https://build.opensuse.org/package/rdiff/devel:languages:nodejs/nodejs-electron?linkrev=base&rev=5

Hm - adding the Prefer: to the spec doesn't seem to have an effect.

I would rather not touch anything outside of this package that could affect other packages in this project. But as I was able to fix something similar for 15.3 using BuildRequires in the spec file, this should be possible for fedora as well.

unresolvable: have choice for pkgconfig(jack): jack-audio-connection-kit-devel pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit-devel, have choice for nodejs-devel needed by nodejs-packaging: nodejs-devel nodejs16-devel

I tried it like this:

# help decide for dependency
BuildRequires:  pipewire-jack-audio-connection-kit-devel
BuildRequires:  nodejs16-devel

But that seems to create some conflict with npm16. Maybe we need the "newer" version of nodejs-devel. We could try BuildRequires: nodejs-devel >=17 or something like that for fedora.

Because we do not have any debug symbols at all.

@dheidler Odd version numbers of nodejs like 17 are development versions. Even numbers are maintained LTS versions. Most projects use LTS versions and not development versions and if you build them like signal-desktop with nodejs16 it wont work if electron is built with nodejs17!

nodejs-election should be built with nodejs16 on all distributions!


Dominik Heidler's avatar

I'm using nodejs16 on all opensuse distros. I was unable to get resolved build dependencies for fedora otherwise. Feel free to send a SR to change it on fedora - I myself am happy if it builds at all for fedora as I don't consider it as very important.


Andreas Schneider's avatar

Take a look at the tumbleweed build log, it picks nodejs17!


Dominik Heidler's avatar

Let's see if my latest change fixes that


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

I think the system node copy is only used for running the typescript compiler, electron ships its own fork of node (and libuv) inside.

I even tried to unbundle libuv (it is backward compatible; Arch uses system libuv even in ancient node versions) but it did not work — Electron has its own patches not matching any upstream libuv version.


Andreas Schneider's avatar

Please branch memory-constraints and build it for Fedora 36 in devel:languages:nodejs


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

I'm doing a major review of our spec for electron 19 merge, does anyone know why we block building on 32bit platforms? Especially since armv7 is explicitely supported by upstream.


Anonymous User's avatar

Dominik Heidler's avatar

Yes - I think build failed on armv7h and i586 and I'm not sure how to fix that, so it was disabled to save ressources.


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

I managed to fix all assembling errors, but unfortunately on i586 neither BFD nor GoLD can handle “Google Ultron powered by Download More RAM”.


Dominik Heidler's avatar

You could have some entry here: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/devel:languages:nodejs/nodejs-electron/_constraints?expand=1

But I guess you can just have 4GB of RAM in total on i586.


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

I don't really care about other arches, but right now even arm64 fails to link, which would be a regression. So i'm trying to unbundle some libs (abseil, spirv) to reduce binary size.


veractor's avatar

Hi, just a user of the repo here on Fedora 37. The package seems to have been rebuilt 6 or 7 times in the past week or so, with no apparent change to the source RPM other than the release number. What's prompted this and what changed?


Dominik Heidler's avatar

that usually means that a dependency got rebuilt.


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

Unfortunately fedora does not have build-compare which would eliminate spurious rebuilds: boo#1206734


veractor's avatar

Is this a problem specifically for Fedora 36 and later, or has it been for all Fedora versions?


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

all fedora, it never had reproducible builds on OBS

as of todays update to 33.3.1 on a leap 15.6 with element-web and element-desktop installed from this same repo ( https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:languages:nodejs ) i am only briefly seeing content inside the element-desktop ( 1.11.88 ) and the it vanishes and the whole element-desktop window content is pure white only and only the element-desktop menu such as file, edit, view, window, help ... I only briefly see my last chat with a person and briefly the element-desktop gui as it used to be then its shortly after that replaced by a seemingly white layer or fully white content only. any help? where to bugreport? thanks.


i thod's avatar

Please try to delete the cache folders .config/Element/GPUCache/ etc. and try to restart. If it does not work, bug reports go here https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/


andreas bittner's avatar

I did this step but it didnt, help (much) I briefly have seen my chat a bit longer now, I have just posted a single jpeg picture inside the chat a few lines ago (yesterday) which seems to be loading (attempting to load) the little circle as placeholder for the jpeg rotates but it never displays that jpeg image and maybe exactly when it tries to load it or tries to draw it it seems to go white. I even see the cursor at the very bottom to chat write a new line into the chat and all. all seems pretty normal for element-desktop gui and application until it blanks out (white out).


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

Do you get a core dump?


andreas bittner's avatar

no the element-desktop application continues to be displayed on the KDE desktop of 15.6 leap, the menu and the window in general keeps working, minimize maximize etc, but the content gets covered or disappears by a fully white layer it seems. I briefly see my chat. will try that cache deletion .config/Element/GPUCache/ from above and see what I can find out. thanks.


andreas bittner's avatar

I am not even sure how to properly bugreport this to what area on the opensuse bugzilla, i created this: https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1235830 thanks for teaching a bit more about this.
