.deb package file is broken #244
Description
Activity
@pythonInRelay We are also providing AppImage. https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote.next/releases
It might be better than snapcraft. How do you think?@Rokt33r The advantage to
snap(or any package manager e.g.aptorpacmanis that all packages can be updated with one command, e.g on Ubuntu/Mint/Debian you could update the entire system and all programs with:sudo apt update sudo apt upgrade sudo snap refresh
Moreover, Snap will automatically put the package into a location that is in the path, whereas with a
.appimagethe user needs to edit there~/.profileto add something like~/binto the path.So although an app image is really convenient, snap would be even easier because users wouldn’t need to watch Github for releases.
Reacted by 825i and Nick@RyanGreenup Okay, I'll try snap soon. Btw did you also confront this problem?
I confirmed the deb package file is broken. I'll replace its link with the AppImage link until I fix this problem
@Rokt33r I have not actually encountered this problem with v 0.1.1, although I install the new version over the old version so maybe that's why, it might be nice to give the binary a slightly different name so the old version and new version can be run concurrently.

Reacted by Junyoung Choi and Jeroen@RyanGreenup I'll change the name in this month. Until I change it, please use AppImage one.
@RyanGreenup #319 Please follow this issue. I'll try to resolve in this week.
@RyanGreenup @pythonInRelay
Both of your issues should be fixed in v0.2.1. Please try it and reopen the issue if the problem still exist.
https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote.next/releases/tag/v0.2.1Sadly this issue still occurs, at least for me on Debian. However, this is not unique to the .deb package; the AppImage does not work either.

@ZurMaD Thanks for the comment. Apparently we can set the argument by default. I'll try to apply it from the next version. electron-userland/electron-builder#4364
had the same problem with latest deb package on debian buster
--no-sandbox flag helped to get app running.
thx- removed this from the milestone
on Aug 24, 2021 Is there anyone able to try the steps below? I don't have a device using Debian so it is a bit difficult for me to test the solution.
- set
["--no-sandbox"]to "build.linux.executableArgs" of package.json
"linux": { "icon": "static/icon.icns", "target": [ "deb", "rpm", "AppImage" ], // Add the below "executableArgs": [ "--no-sandbox" ] },
- Add .env file
NODE_ENV=production BOOST_HUB_BASE_URL=https://boostnote.io- Run these script
npm run build:electron npm run pack- Test .deb and .AppImage files in
distdirectory
- set
@Rokt33r I tried with my Debian box, currently with Debian 10.9.
It seems that the additional argments of"--no-sandbox"in thepackage.jsonfile does not resolve the problem.
When I tried to run the generatedboost-note-linux.AppImage, I got following messages[16145:0907/093219.679087:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(158)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /tmp/.mount_boost-yPAGMj/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.@boostio has funded $20.00 to this issue.
