DetailsDescription:
signal-desktop - in any version I could acquire on my archlinux - always fails with the same error: {"name":"log","hostname":"laprbg12","pid":284333,"level":50,"time":"2020-02-08T00:54:12.438Z","msg":"provisioning failed TypeError: binding.donna is not a function\n at keyPair ([REDACTED]/app.asar/node_modules/curve25519-n/index.js:36:21)\n at Object.exports.createKeyPair ([REDACTED]/app.asar/node_modules/curve25519-n/index.js:116:17)\n at Object.exports.generateKeyPair ([REDACTED]/app.asar/node_modules/curve25519-n/index.js:110:18)\n at generateKeyPair ([REDACTED]/app.asar/preload.js:309:39)\n at Object.generateKeyPair ([REDACTED]/app.asar/preload.js:301:39)\n at file://[REDACTED]/app.asar/js/libtextsecure.js:41734:42","v":0} The electron app starts up fine, but then only displays a big "Something went wrong" error. It looks like the curve25519-n npm package (https://www.npmjs.com/package/curve25519-n) is failing to import its binary dependency on the curve25519-donna library, which it vendors and builds directly. (https://github.com/volschin/node-curve25519) A few other people have run into this issue: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/3585 https://github.com/flathub/org.signal.Signal/issues/96 Steps to reproduce: Just run signal desktop All packages I've tried: - community/signal-desktop 1.30.1-1 - aur/signal-desktop-beta-bin 1.31.0beta.2-1 - aur/signal-desktop-noto 1.30.0-1 - flatpack org.signal.Signal 1.30.1 |

Add: This bug is triggered by creating a new Keypair, so it might not show up if Signal is already set up. You might need to run "Set Up as New Device" to trigger the bug.
