That might be related to this issue: develar/app-builder#55

The odd part is that I've never repro'd this in my other project that builds for universal.

@MiGongOrg, are you compiling on an M1 by chance?

[stale]

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs.

[alectrocute]

Still relevant. Teammate running into this issue on an M1 Mac.

I believe I'm running into this with sqlite3...

I am getting this error on a m1 mac running electron-forge make --arch universal

[spartygw]

I'm still seeing this but I see the issue is closed. Is there a work-around?

[semireg]

I'm seeing this when trying to bundle a copy of a fat Python binary. The input files are identical. The fix for electron-builder is likely to detect when the inputs to lipo are the same (and fat), and then just choose one and not try to combine them.

I'm running electron-builder 23.1.0 and electron 18.3.2.

Here's the relevant code in electron/universal. You'll see that they are using the sha. I enabled debug for electron-universal and then looked at the actual code in node_modules and it didn't match the above... behold, electron-builder (nay app-builder-lib) is pinned to @electron/universal version 1.2.1. I'm guessing that if we get that dependency updated with the hashing logic we'll be good.

A quick/dirty workaround is to:

cd node_modules/app-builder-lib;
npm install @electron/universal@latest

That'll get the new logic in place. Then, you'll have to set the relevant options in your package.json:

    "mac": {
      ...
      "x64ArchFiles": "**/ymmv/**"
    },

Will update this comment as I make progress.

[mmaietta]

Yes, x64ArchFiles is available in https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/releases/tag/v23.3.0
