Package fails to build when libvips is installed. The sharp npm module detects global libvips and tries to build from source, but fails because source files are missing.

Fix: Add export SHARP_IGNORE_GLOBAL_LIBVIPS=1 to the prepare() function in PKGBUILD.

Workaround:

cd /var/tmp/pamac-build-$USER/session-desktop  # or ~/.cache/yay/session-desktop for yay users
SHARP_IGNORE_GLOBAL_LIBVIPS=1 makepkg -f
sudo pacman -U session-desktop-*.pkg.tar.zst

Tiny bug in the /usr/bin/session-desktop file.

There is a space before "#!/bin/bash" and this will cause issues executing the script in some cases, like when launching the application in KDE via the desktop-file.

Trying to install it, I got this error:

==> Starting build()...
yarn run v1.22.22
error session-desktop@1.17.1: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "20.18.2". Got "24.9.0

It seems like when the prepare() function finishes, its temp environment is destroyed and the specific Node.js version that was set is lost thus reverting to the system default.

My fix is below:

 build() {
     cd "${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
+    source /usr/share/nvm/init-nvm.sh
+    nvm use
     export NODE_ENV=production
     yarn build
     yarn electron-builder --linux --dir \

I don't understand why (since PKGBUILD is a bash script), but when using fish shell, build fails. nvm is not available when build() function is called.

Adding source /usr/share/nvm/init-nvm.sh to the first line of the build() function solved for me.

Fish shell is also my default login shell, just mentioning because I don't know whether this is relevant though.

I'm presuming this is related to using fish shell because I tested the original PKGBUILD on a clean chroot with mkarchroot using bash, and it built just fine.

Get an error when building the latest version. Looks like note 18.15.0 is needed. The output says v18.15.0 is found and installed.

error session-desktop@1.14.5: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version "18.15.0". Got "18.20.5" error Commands cannot run with an incompatible environment.</code?

I tried to make this package and got the error "A failure occurred in prepare()". I got past it by manually running commands similar to the prepare() function in PKGBUILD:

source /usr/share/nvm/init-nvm.sh
nvm install node
nvm use --delete-prefix v22.6.0
nvm use node
yarn install

I don't really understand what those commands did (they seemed to install node.js) but they worked for me.

I then ran into this error:

usr/lib/electron25/electron: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.73: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I got some help in a forum post and copied some old versions of libicu into my lib directory, which fixed that problem, but then ran into the same issue with libavcodec and libx265.

At that point I gave up. I believe something needs to be rebuilt, but I'm not certain what, and I don't know how to do it. Hopefully Antony knows how to fix this.

I have taken over this orphan. Build script and package version have been updated.

Tried fixing this again, and it still is failing to build. I've about given up on this.
