Packaging for Solus

OS:
Solus

Hey Guys,

Is it possible to build for Solus's eopkg manager? Josh, the community manager, has tried but he gets an error when attempting to package it. link There are few of us really wanting to use this on Solus.

@FedoraTipper I have 0 clue how eopkg or Solus operates and to be honest I don't have the time / energy to find out 😆

Closing as WONTFIX because it falls on its face during build by creating recursive directories to the point it is actually creates a ENAMETOOLONG.

That seems like he is trying to build with an old version of npm / node that doesn't have flat pacakging. If you can explain (or he can explain) what I need to do to generate an eopkg I can try make one as a release artifact

Closing out, any discussion RE this can take place in Gitter

For what it's worth, I was able to reproduce this attempting to build in a Ubuntu (16.10) docker container. Using node v6.9.1 from the official installer. electron-packager recursively extracts itself until into its own directory. During that, it attempts to remove some files and runs into ENAMETOOLONG while unlinking some files.
