I successfully built this on x86_64-linux and aarch64-linux.

I also tried building netron (with #462578) merged on top, but got some egl initialization failures:

This might be an incompatibility with my system mesa vs what's in stable, not sure. I tried running it in gnome (wayland).

Running with --disable-gpu does work, I didn't yet test with other electron versions.

Builds fine on x86_64-linux.

I used an entire VM (using a slightly modified version of the gnome VM test), and electron 39 doesn't seem to open a GUI there either. Netron with Electron 36 does work - so I assume there might be some breakage with Electron 39 on stable.

@teutat3s, can you check another electron 39 app on stable?

@Floki I've tested your netron backport PR #462578 on top of this one on a 25.05 host, netron 8.7.3 starts fine for me.
