Infinite loading

[antysocl]

Current behavior

Boostnote v0.16.1 won't load in Gnome 3.38.1. Every time I attempt to open it -- either from the launcher or terminal -- it never progresses past the loading screen. The output from journalctl results in the following:

Can't update stage views actor StWidget is on because it needs an allocation.
Oct 19 17:20:18 archer gnome-shell[1906]: setup_framebuffers: assertion 'width > 0' failed
Oct 19 17:20:18 archer gnome-shell[1906]: Can't update stage views actor StWidget is on because it needs an allocation.

Environment

• Boostnote version: 0.16.1
• OS version and name: Arch Linux, Gnome Shell 3.38.1

Same issue on Arch with KDE Plasma. I can only start the editor with Electron 9.

$ electron9 /usr/bin/boostnote

Currently Arch has version 10 as the default

➤ pac list electron | egrep 'electron[0-9]{,1}'
local/electron 10.1.4-1
local/electron4 4.2.12-6
local/electron5 5.0.13-7
local/electron6-bin 6.1.12-1
local/electron7 7.1.14-7
local/electron9 9.3.2-1

➤ electron -v
v10.1.4

Arch package maintainer here. I've updated the package with a patch for Electron 10 compatibility. Feel free to let me know if you continue to experience any issues.
