Additional Information

Package manager's output suggests a problem with Yarn; further investigation found that OS is using Yarn Classic instead of Yarn Modern.

Left "Updates" tab and replaced yarn with yarn-berry: no issues encountered.

Went back to "Updates" and reattempted update; result was this:

did you try updating through discover?

What is "discover"?

@Zakanuva The AUR packages are not maintained by the FreeTube team, so in the future any issue you experience with them should be directed at the AUR package maintainers. Please use one of the official FreeTube installation methods (FreeTube website, the releases page on this GitHub repository and the flatpak) to avoid problems like this in the future.

As you are building FreeTube from the source code you need to make sure your build environment is set up correctly, you need to install a newer version of Node.js, ideally the latest version but the latest version of v20 should be enough but v18 is definitely incompatible.

What is "discover"?

it's a kde version of the snap store in gnome
