[Bug] Run from sources fails on aarch64 ManjoroARM, Fix identified

[Rippert]

• Open Stage Control version - 1.9.1
• Operating system - ManjaroARM minimal with Xorg and LXDE installed
• Open Stage Control options -none
• Client type (built-in or external chromium/chrome browser) and version -N/A
• Session file (can be uploaded after adding the .txt extension) -N/A
• Custom module -N/A
• Server logs (from the terminal or the launcher's console) - N/A
• Client logs (hit F12 in chromium/chrome to open the console) - N/A

• Screenshot - N/A

  I successfully followed the Build from Sources guide on a Raspberry pi 3B+ running Raspberry Pi OS 10 (Buster) previously.

I tried to follow them for a Raspberry Pi 4B running ManjaroARM, substituting npm install --arch=aarch64 for npm install --arch=armv7l. everything seemed to work until I tried to run with npm start, then I received this error:

$ npm start

> open-stage-control@1.9.1 start
> electron app/

sh: line 1: electron: command not found

Afterwards, I tried npm install electron --save-dev in the O-S-C directory. It proceeded normally, and I was able to start the full GUI of O-S-C using npm start after that. It may be that using --arch=arm64 in the initial instructions might work, but I did not try that yet.

Yes, most probably, I'm adding that to the docs.

I will test it if you want me to. I assume just creating a new directory and starting the whole procedure from scratch will work? It take a while on my puny RPI!

[jean-emmanuel]

That'd be great

[Rippert]

OK, I'll get back to you tomorrow about it. Thanks again.

[Rippert]

It did work with --arch=arm64.

[jean-emmanuel]

Thank you for testing!

[Rippert]

You're welcome. Thank you for all your work on O-S-C.
