patchtron quits immediately in Arch Linux

[evbogue]

Hey @mmckegg,

I cloned down patchtron today, but it seems to quit out on me right away.

My process was

npm install
npm start

Electron launches, and I saw the Patchtron interface for around seven seconds. Then it just quits with no errors?

Here's what I see in my console

[ev@arch patchtron]$ npm start
npm info it worked if it ends with ok
npm info using [email protected]
npm info using [email protected]
npm info lifecycle [email protected]~prestart: [email protected]
npm info lifecycle [email protected]~start: [email protected]

> [email protected] start /home/ev/patchtron
> electron run.js --friends.hops 2

starting scuttleshell
loading custom plugins:  /home/ev/patchtron/sbot-plugin
npm info lifecycle [email protected]~poststart: [email protected]
npm info ok

I'm not [email protected] and [email protected]

I should mention that I had no other sbots running.

@evbogue Hmm, strange. I wonder if this is to do with scuttle-shell registering the system tray icon. Have you tried running scuttle-shell standalone and see if it works?
