Unable to install latest version of Discord (0.0.37) #25

I tried building and installing RPM package of Discord using the latest code on repo currently (it previously worked).

However, dnf fails to install it. I tried uninstalling the old Discord version via dnf as well instead of just upgrading but the same issue. It appears the RPM package built using the latest STABLE Discord version malfunctions. Building for the latest PTB version works though

I suspect the following error might give us some hints: image

Miscellaneous Info:

Discord package: discord-0.0.37.tar.gz

Update: Now discord-ptb-0.0.59.tar.gz also doesn't work.

It's quite annoying how Discord on Linux forces you to always use the latest version

please see https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=5953#c43 to allow lunch Discord outdated

Thanks. That's good workaround for now. Only thing is that the script still fails to build new versions of Discord. I spent an hour looking narrowing down the issue to no avail. Strangely, I couldn't find any logs from dnf on why the "transaction failed". Wondering also if this is an isolated issue on my system or otherwise.

Error unpacking ... can be https://superuser.com/questions/1695501/error-unpacking-rpm-package/1707403#1707403

so dnf remove old package ; delete all remaining files and symlinks , dnf install the new package
