Explanation
Running positron on Linux in a terminal via
positron --verbose
and then clicking the File option in the menubar results in Positron crashing. The terminal output shows the following error message:This looks to be the same issue as microsoft/vscode#230604, which is ultimately due to a change in Chromium on Linux.
From microsoft/vscode#230604 (comment):
Electron v32.2.5 contains the fix for this issue.
QA Notes
Clicking on the File option in the native menubar on Linux should no longer crash Positron.
Since Electron has been updated by 4 patch versions, so it would be good to check that desktop builds across OS's are still working well!
This change fixes the issue for me in a local DEB release build on Ubuntu and also worked for a dev build on Linux for Wes 🎉
