npm server issue EDIT: Electron 32bit support

Hey just wanted to also report a issue with npms server, when you try and install electron for example it will give a 404 error and downloads from the wrong address.

Well, Electron is deprecated on 32-bit since version 3 or 4. :-)

gameslayer · 2022-06-25 15:22:52

Ignore that message, they still support it and I still build packages for 32bit but on Arch32 npm is broken

abaumann · 2022-06-25 15:23:49

Ah, true that. npm is broken since quite a while on Arch32. :-)

gameslayer · 2022-06-25 15:26:08

Ahh I see, will this get fixed? I need it for Arch32

abaumann · 2022-06-25 15:33:19

Mmh. Npm seems to work atm. As I read https://electronjs.org/blog/linux-32bit-support
(and the HTTP error above), Electron is not supporting 32-bit anymore.

No, I personally have no plans to fix Electron on Arch32.. :-)

gameslayer · 2022-06-25 16:26:40

Ahh damn they must of dropped support for it

gameslayer · 2022-06-26 07:28:27

Would you guys be able to put electron on the Arch32 repo? That would be an awesome way to keep the support alive and keep support for applications that use Electron

levi · 2022-06-26 08:11:43

Not unless electron revoke their idea to stop supporting electron since version 3.

gameslayer · 2022-06-26 08:20:40

It's actually lying, if you revert a couple versions back, the last compiled version released was 18.3.5 but since it's open source you could just compile it yourself since they won't anymore and redistribute it on the repo like Manjaro does for x64 system in their repo.

abaumann · 2022-06-26 08:59:05

Building Electron from scratch might involve some node.js patches and stuff.

This doesn't look too hard, so I might give it a try (though I think somebody else could do it for training :-) ):
https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/ … ions-linux

There are not that lot of important Electron apps, so this might not have the highest priority. :-)

abaumann · 2022-06-26 09:09:35

So, upstream (64-bit) is building electron from scratch. Let's see what the obstactles are when doing the same on pentium4.. :-)

abaumann · 2022-06-26 09:22:40

Fetching chromium...
Cloning into 'src'...

mmh. This needs local libseccomp patching, chromium currently doesn't really work on 32-bit Intel. And this is a problem
since quite a while. And everybody cloning his own version for his project (here Electron) is not really helping either..

gameslayer · 2022-06-26 10:35:06

I really hope this is doable, there is apps that use it including the many desktop apps for web services I have made using electron and YouTube and YouTube music for example run great even on a couple old PC's running Arch32

and this is in prepare :->

gameslayer · 2022-06-27 06:02:26

Patches needed to be done to resolve this?

levi · 2022-06-27 07:43:43

Yes, fixes needed for at the very least the PKGBUILD.

abaumann · 2022-06-27 16:18:41

This look quite bad, actually. Electron might have built in version 3.0. I don't have any plans to tackle this.. :-)

gameslayer · 2022-06-27 23:32:13

Oh I see that's a pain.

gameslayer · 2022-06-29 07:04:22

Would this also help at all? https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/32-bit … guidelines

gameslayer · 2022-06-29 08:28:25

Also made this request on electron

https://github.com/electron/electron/issues/34783

abaumann · 2022-06-29 09:43:59

The problem in Chromium is with libseccomp-jailing for IA-32. It broke again and again till it finally broke (in a final way). :-)
I know about some people in Slackware trying to fix it.. maybe then there is a chance.

gameslayer · 2022-06-29 11:41:27

You can get it working using this argument --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox

here is my Fujitsu laptop with Arch32 running my Youtube desktop app compiled for Linux 32bit
