Checklist

Could you test if this problem still exists with the latest master commit?

cordova platform add https://github.com/apache/cordova-electron.git (you might need to rm -rf platorms first)

J-Gann commented 4 years ago

@timbru31 Thanks for the fast response! Sadly the issue still persists. When manually installing the dependency from an web-archive the installation succeeds. However this is no good solution since the dependency can not be installed by pacman automatically.

I suspect this could be an upstream electron issue then :(
Do you have any clue/information why Arch decided to remote the package?

J-Gann commented 4 years ago

@timbru31 No idea, sry ... Cant seem to find any information about that

Can you confirm if this is still a problem with Cordova Electron 3.0.0?

To upgrade:

cordova platform remove electron
cordova platform add electron@3.0.0
