Running into npm error message on the Pinephone with podman version

[petrisch]

Hi there

On UT Edition with 3Gb RAM running mobian:unstable/bookworm.

sudo apt install podman

Then tried both the /var/lib/genie and ~/.config version. The later gave me this error after getting the image installed:

{"msg":"exec container process `/usr/bin/npm`: Exec format error","level":"error","time":"2022-01-23T15:25:25.000197416Z"}

Do I need to install npm as well for some reason? I'm pretty bad with containers though, so need a little help here :smile:

I had the same and I learned that the pulled container is not for arm64 architecture. Need to follow the steps on the read.me to compile it from source. After that with podman: podman run --name genie -p 3000:3000 -v /dev/shm:/dev/shm -v $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/pulse:/run/pulse -e PULSE_SERVER=unix:/run/pulse/native -v $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/genie-server:/var/lib/genie-server --security-opt label=disable localhost/genie-server And if podman says that the name genie already is in use, just podman rm ...

It's crazy that the Genie team advertises everywhere in docs that it's compatible with pis and don't even have a docker image compatible with ARM

doesn't seem to be active so no sense to keep open
