Linux x64 build fails when arm build is performed before

[lukasbach]

• Electron-Builder Version: 22.8.0

• Node Version: 12

• Electron Version: 10.1.1
• Electron Type (current, beta, nightly): current

• Target: linux snap/deb/zip/AppImage, archs arm64/armv7l/x64, see config below for more details

I'm trying to build for both arm architectures and x64 under Linux. Before, I just had x64 as target which worked fine, however now I've added arm64 and armv7l as targets, and now the x64 target is failing which I don't really understand since that worked fine before.

The build is executed on an Github action runner. The complete output log is here: https://github.com/lukasbach/yana/runs/4722014157?check_suite_focus=true#step:6:351
(marked line is where the error happens)
This is how the config file looks like: https://github.com/lukasbach/yana/blob/6955233158610ea75564fd38fe52bc4436cf4d59/electron-builder.json

Relevant snippet from the config:

{
  "linux": {
    "target": [
      {
        "target": "snap",
        "arch": ["arm64", "armv7l", "x64"]
      },
      {
        "target": "deb",
        "arch": ["x64"]
      },
      {
        "target": "zip",
        "arch": ["arm64", "armv7l", "x64"]
      },
      {
        "target": "AppImage",
        "arch": ["arm64", "armv7l", "x64"]
      }
    ],
    "publish": ["github"]
  },
}

Is there an issue with electron builder, since the previously working x64 build now fails if a arm build is performed previously, or has it something to do with my config? Thanks in advance!

[lukasbach]

For further details, this is the output log and config from before when it only built x64 targets and was still working.

[stale]

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs.

[lukasbach]

Still relevant to my knowledge

[mkurz]

If someone wants to make fpm in electron-builder work for arm64/aarch64 I wrote a guide how to do so here: signalapp/Signal-Desktop#6063 (comment)
Feel free to pick up that work, I don't have time to do so.

[rmartins90]

Were you able to overcome this @lukasbach? I'm trying to build app for Linux arm64 using the electron.builder Docker image in a GitHub runner and I'm stuck in the same place: snapcraft is not installed, please: sudo snap install snapcraft --classic

[lukasbach]

@rmartins90 no sorry, after it was not working I didn't investigate this any further.
