# zypper if --provides nodejs-electron [...] electron(x86-64)(abi) = 125 Apparently signal-desktop needs to be rebuild against the latest dependencues in Tumbleweed. This will happen from time to time if you add additional (non-openSUSE) repositories.

Thank you. It was working here a month ago, so Tumbleweed must have moved forward and signal-desktop failed to keep up. It's not a showstopper so I'll wait. -- Bob Williams

where do you get that outdated signal version from? "zypper se -s signal-desktop"?
If the maintainer of signal-desktop reads this list, could they take a look at the package, please.
signal-desktop is not included in factory, probably for a reason, but the version from obs://network:im:signal works fine on my TW machine. -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman

This is what I am using, too and it does *not* contain signal-desktop-7.22.1-1.1.x86_64.rpm (anymore).

Yes. -- Stefan Seyfried "For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." -- Richard Feynman
Just a guess - maybe it was removed because of this recent bug that is breaking the local database: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/7029 On Wed, Oct 16, 2024 at 3:26 AM Stefan Seyfried via openSUSE Factory < factory@lists.opensuse.org> wrote:

It's unrelated to any upstream bug. OBS repos simply do not keep old binaries of packages around.
