Wouldn’t this be a good candidate to get in Fedora repos?
The package seems pretty mature and works great for me on F39, F40 aarch64, where the openSUSE rpm is broken and Flatpak is unavailable.
Hey, looks like the 7.33 is crashing on startup - Fedora Asahi 41 (aarch64). dnf downgrade helps, as 7.32 is fine.
I didn’t save the logs before downgrading unfortunately. Perhaps a new version of Electron?
Hi all, a few days ago I started getting a crash. I just upgraded to 7.34 and it still persists. It says that a database error occurred and the terminal shows:

dnf downgrade says The lowest available version of the "signal-desktop.x86_64" package is already installed, cannot downgrade it.. Trying to download 7.32 manually gives me a 404.
Anyone else having this following crash constantly since the update to 7.42.0?
For anyone familiar with Electron applications, does this look like something that should be reported upstream?
Render process is gone
Error: Reason: crashed, Exit Code: 133
at App. ([REDACTED]/app/global_errors.js:94.7)
at App.emit (node:events:518:28)
at WebContents. (node:electron/js2c/browser_init:2:87957)
at WebContents.emit (node:events:518:28)
Update: The issue which might be causing the render process crashes is an issue with upstream Chromium having a patch that broke it on kernels using anything other than 4KB page sizes. A fix has been backported to Electron, and the bug is also on Signal’s GitHub repo. If you are facing this crash, launching Signal with the --js-flags="--no-decommit-pooled-pages" flag should prevent the crashes.
