Hi, sorry for the issue-- often this happens on Linux if you updated the app (like apt upgrade) while it's running. Is it fixed when you restart the app?

[bugith]

Hi This always happens on update because Signal-desktop is always running, the same way it is always running in my Android. Yes, restarting Signal-desktop fixes the issue. Some software do this seamlessly on updates (e.g. syncthing)

It is fixed since some releases now. A button shows an update happened and proposes restart.
