(source: Electron packager tutorial | Christian Engvall) and I have been using electron-installer-debian (a product of electron-installer-linux) to build it with the following build file: const installer = require('electron-installer-debian')Ĭonsole.log('Creating package (this may take a while)')Ĭonsole. my_app -overwrite -platform=linux -arch=圆4 -icon=assets/icons/png/icon.png -prune=true -out=release-builds' To build the package I have been using electron-packager: 'package-linux': 'electron-packager.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:Įncounter-view:amd64 : Depends: libgtk-3-0:圆4 but it is not installableĭepends: libnotify4:圆4 but it is not installableĭepends: libnss3:圆4 but it is not installableĭepends: libxss1:圆4 but it is not installableĭepends: libxtst6:圆4 but it is not installableĭepends: libuuid1:圆4 but it is not installableĮ: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. I also went inside docker container and check whether is possible to run electron - worked. The following information may help to resolve the situation: Requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstableĭistribution that some required packages have not yet been created deb file onto the nano, it claims that some packages have unmet dependencies: Some packages could not be installed. I packaged and built it for linux and successfully installed it on a computer I have Ubuntu 18.04 onto. If all you want is an installer in exe format (I dont know about msi) you can use electron-builder to build the exe unpacked to a directory. Hi, I created an electron application that isn’t that complicated and is about 189 MB on Windows and 235 MB on Ubuntu.
