Renderer crash on Tumbleweed

[stryan]

For a couple days now I haven't been able to use element on an up-to-date instance of OpenSUSE TW. Running the program just results in a blank window. Looks like it can't find a localization file, resulting in the renderer crashing.

Does this look like an issue with the package, or something on my machine? I'm not familiar with Electron localization to know if those files are bundled or something. Runtime log below:

Seems to be this https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/19153 and https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/issues/19169#issuecomment-931518447 which is supposed to be fixed in element nightly. Guess we'll have to wait.

Looks like the changes came through and I can open it now. I still see the locale issues though, so before I close this @barathrm are you still having the issue?

The latest version fixes startup/the white screen for me as well 👌

Great! Closing then.
