Cannot get mailspring to start since yesterday (system) update. This is what I get if I start from terminal (even with -l or --test option):

Hey everyone,

thanks for the report. Unfortunately, I am not sure if I am able to do anything about that. The log points to something with the graphics display. If this is an issue with the electron version, there may be a solution in the pipeline already. Is anybody able (and willing) to build Mailspring from source based on this branch and see if this has the same problems?
https://github.com/Phylu/Mailspring/tree/electron-upgrade

Otherwise, this seems like either an arch issue (as there were only arch reports so far), or an upgrade with any used library, that only happened on arch as of yet due to the rolling release cycle. Can any of you post what packages were upgraded? Maybe this also helps to see where the problem is.

Having the same issue on Arch, I hadn't updated in a good week, so for me it could be anything, but I did notice the nvidia packages did get an update, that could be the cause.

Thanks for the response @Phylu! I can't build it locally (using npm run-script build requires having the deb and rpm pacakge managers?), but running it (npm install; npm start;) from the branch you linked (electron-upgrade) does work!

It starts up and doesn't have any notable errors.

@Phylu After naffing around changing node versions and all that jazz, also managed to get the branch you linked running. If it helps, I updated the system yesterday (daily updates when I startup) - I've listed the packages that were updated on my system at that time (Mailspring worked before update) - Sorry the list is long, KDE did an update at the same time, hopefully it might lead to a clue what has caused this:

I was having the same issue after some updates and I've managed to make it work again reverting these:

glibc (2.33-5 -> 2.35-2)
gcc-libs (11.1.0-3 -> 11.2.0-3)
lib32-glibc (2.33-5 -> 2.35-2)
binutils (2.36.1-3 -> 2.38-3)
gcc (11.1.0-3 -> 11.2.0-3)

Thanks for the follow-ups. I will try to push the merge of the electron update forward. If we are lucky this will resolve the issue then. Maybe there was an API change in the glibc which makes it incompatible with older electron versions?

gcc (11.1.0-3 -> 11.2.0-3)

I confirm that it works on my side reverting theses also.

EDIT: However, it breaks vim since vim updated to new glibc, and potentially other things. For the moment, I resort to other mail clients waiting for the merge to be published.

Searching here and there I found out that also MS Teams won't start after updating those pkgs (and this has been confirmed on it's AUR page.

I downgraded and suddenly everything came back to life!
Pretty sure it's not a mailspring issue at this point, but I'll leave this conclusion to people who are certainly more expert than me.

Same here. On OS Arch Linux x86_64 5.6.10-arch1-1, installed mailspring through the AUR. For some reason mailspring works on my laptop.

Edit: huh, snap works for me

Yeah snap seems to work because it brings it's own dependencies with it. I think the Flatpak works too.

For those of you waiting on this issue and not wanting to downgrade any packages, try running mailspring with disabled sandbox:

mailspring --no-sandbox

Albeit disabling the sandbox is not ideal, this might be a possible workaround until the underlying issue is resolved.
Another alternative could be using --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox.

See also the comments on the AUR package of microsoft-teams, which is currently suffering from the same error, for some more information.
