glowing-bear fails to build, but it works on container build

[Leo Arias]

I packaged glowing-bear, and got the snap build with the snapcraft snap, version 2.35:

https://github.com/snapcrafters/glowing-bear/tree/b515ca42cc725e9db4fe2a7e37bafa508d33616a

However, it fails on build.snapcraft.io with the following error:

I suspect that this may be fixed by https://code.launchpad.net/~cjwatson/launchpad-buildd/local-snap-proxy/+merge/322545. However, I tried to run a local test build and found that https://github.com/snapcrafters/glowing-bear no longer exists. Do you still have this repository somewhere?

[Alan Pope 🍺🐧🐱 🦄 (popey)]

This looks like an anomaly, lets close it and if we see it again we can re-open. Thanks Colin.

[Colin Watson (cjwatson)]

OK. Marking Invalid for lack of a better status (I can't really prove that I fixed it), although I'm sure it was a valid bug; hopefully it's effectively a duplicate of one of the other bugs fixed by local-snap-proxy. By all means feel free to reopen this if it's still an issue.

(Apparently most electron-builder-based stuff builds in a different way that Launchpad doesn't support at all yet, due to calling electron-builder at the top level rather than snapcraft.)
