how to automatically use the local electron.exe when packaging #8543

I compiled the source code of the Electron framework locally and generated my own electron.exe. Now, when using Electron Builder to package, I find that I am still using the default electron.exe. So, how do I configure the Electron Builder configuration file, electronbuilder.yml, to automatically use the local electron.exe when packaging?

You can use this property for pointing at the local electron dist build directory https://www.electron.build/app-builder-lib.interface.configuration#electrondist
