'linux' platform is linux32, 64bit not supported?

cobalamin opened this issue 10 years ago · 6 comments

The 'linux' platform option is only the 32bit version. atom-shell always releases as 32bit and 64bit version under Linux, so I'm wondering why 64bit isn't supported.

atom-shell itself doesn't provide 64bit builds on Windows.
See: https://github.com/atom/atom-shell/releases

I'm not sure what you mean. There's specific releases with an x64 suffix, and I've been using them on my x64 Linux machine for some time:

EDIT: I didn't notice, but apparently you thought I was talking about Windows - I wasn't, I was talking about Linux :)

You're welcome! But I forgot to edit the README, this should probably be mentioned there... It still says:

The platforms to download and build packages for. Supported platforms are 'darwin', 'win32', and 'linux'. If ommitted, defaults to the host platform.

@Pommesgabel You're right, apologies. No idea why I did, using Linux myself ;)
