Details

Description:
Won't run natively under wayland using electron options
--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform
--ozone-platform=wayland
after upgrading electron13 (13.6.7-1 -> 13.6.8-2)

But runs OK under wayland using xorg-wayland after disabling those options.

Maybe needs a rebuild of code using new electron13 package?

Additional info:

* package version(s)
code 1.63.2-1

* config and/or log files etc.
~/.config/electron13-flags.conf:
--enable-features=UseOzonePlatform
--ozone-platform=wayland

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start a wayland session (such as sway)
2. Start code with the above options to use wayland natively
This task depends upon

Updating to code 1.64 didn't fix it.

It seems it will be fixed in electron-13.6.9.

Hmm, electron13 13.6.9-1 didn’t work around this issue, but installing electron13-bin 13.6.9-1 from the AUR did.

Upgrading to electron-13.6.9 fixed it for me.

(visual-studio-code-bin still doesn't work, but that's another matter.)

Issue is back with
code 1.66.0-1
electron 17.2.0-1

This is an electron issue. In theory it should be fixed by upgrading electron to 17.3.1.

@tensor5 I added you to the task since you are maintaining electron

I locally build electron 17.3.1 and can confirm code could work normally.
