Apps like signal-desktop are failing on execution with: /usr/lib64/electron/electron: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/electron/electron: undefined symbol: hb_subset_input_set_retain_gids


Dominik Heidler's avatar

According to the discussion at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/freetube/ which seems to be the same problem, this is due to the harfbuzz library removing some "legacy code" that includes that function: https://github.com/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/commit/d700646c33af53afcabe564e9943565d58e1192a

This also seems to break the build here atm.


O. Gas Valve's avatar

I did see that. It's not the first time I've seen harfbuzz break everything in a package bulk build. What about updating this to latest stable or adding a new package for v16 so we can get apps working again?


sergio Basto's avatar

builds for Fedora 39+ fails because of the new vulkan version on Fedora , you can found the full logs in https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/sergiomb/electrons/package/nodejs-electron/

Any suggestion to fix the build ?

I don't see any builds failing here, and what you pasted is not a build error.


sergio Basto's avatar

yeah, sorry, anyway full logs are here in builder-live.log.gz https://download.copr.fedorainfracloud.org/results/sergiomb/electrons/fedora-39-x86_64/06969127-nodejs-electron/builder-live.log.gz

ah ldd is disable and I had it enabled , I'm firing a new build


sergio Basto's avatar

Following https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1374347 export LDFLAGS="${LDFLAGS} -Wl,--as-needed -fuse-ld=lld -Wl,--undefined-version" fixes the build for F39
on Rawhide we need to add: BuildRequires: python3-setuptools
But now I got an error with zlib , we need bundle zlib according https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2242271


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

You should not use lld, it does not work with GCC. Also zlib should never be bundled as it is part of electron's exported API.

May i know what are you trying to do? Electron builds fine on Fedora 39 here on OBS, on both x86_64 and aarch64: https://build.opensuse.org/package/live_build_log/devel:languages:nodejs/nodejs-electron/Fedora_39/x86_64


sergio Basto's avatar

I'm building electron for Fedora in copr instead OBS for my personal use, maybe one day I will add it to Fedora . About lId, I was confused, I though lld replaces gold and gold linker was deprecated on Fedora (but neither one and other are true), I will check that. anyway build with lld makes bins 10% smaller . thank you


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

lld does not support LTO (which actually makes the binaries several dozen MB smaller when enabled). The builds here are done with the default GNU bfd linker and with LTO enabled (exactly according to packaging policy)

As for adding Electron to Fedora proper, that's tremendously unlikely due to upstream's extremely short API/ABI stability guarantees. (I have removed it from Leap for that very reason)


sergio Basto's avatar

ah ok , now I also built electron with LTO . thank you
On Rawhide we need to add: BuildRequires: python3-setuptools to avoid distutils error.
With https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/MinizipNGTransition got an error with zlib , we need bundle zlib according https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2242271


Bruno Pitrus's avatar

minizip and z are two different libraries even if they are built from the same “zlib” source tree. I repeat you do not want to bundle z as it is exported by electron, meaning it would interpose the system copy which is loaded by basically everything.

You may try bundling minizip (only) but you would need to do it manually — it has been stripped from this tarball.

Personally, i would try to patch the offending file not to use this API — this is something that will need to get done eventually anyway.



Bruno Pitrus's avatar

But zlib is not a problem. All the errors are from minizip.


sergio Basto's avatar

Sorry , when I wrote bundle zlib , was want wrote bundle minizip quoting from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2242271 "Also, I can see chromium bundles minizip as well. Is our Fedora chromium package ready to switch to bundled minizip "
