how do you build this package?

[silverhikari]

i am trying to build from the git as i noticed the releases are quite old. after cloning i used pnpm install as i noticed the pnpm lock file. but after installing using pnpm install when i try to build the package either with pnpm package or make i get this error from electron-forge.

so i am wondering do i have to install with yarn first then run pnpm or am i missing something?

All I had to do was to run "npm install" and "npm run start", no additional installation required.

The problem you have encountered is caused by this line in package.json:

  },
  "packageManager": "pnpm@7.0.0"
}

You can safely remove it. It's experimental field and defines what package manager is expected to be used.
Unfortunately it seems electron-forge is checking yarn version and this line causes error.
