Packaging breaks with local package imports

[Stoyvo]

• Electron-Builder Version: 25.1.8

• Node Version: 20.18.0

• Electron Version: 31.7.3
• Electron Type (current, beta, nightly): current

• Target: arm64

My package.json has a local package, eg:

{
  "name": "my-app",
  "author": "Me",
  "version": "0.11.2",
  "productName": "myapp",
  "main": "main.js",
  "homepage": ".",
  "type": "commonjs",
  "dependencies": {
    "@stoyvo/api-client": "file:../../api-client",

I get the error:

  • packaging       platform=darwin arch=arm64 electron=31.7.3 appOutDir=dist/mac-arm64
  ⨯ /Users/stoyvo/Development/api-client/.openapi-generator-ignore must be under /Users/stoyvo/Development/electron/  failedTask=build stackTrace=Error: /Users/stoyvo/Development/api-client/.openapi-generator-ignore must be under /Users/stoyvo/Development/electron/

I believe there is resemblance to this issue recently closed: #8345

Could you test the https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/releases/tag/v26.0.0-alpha.6?

@beyondkmp I had the same issue, and upgrading to 26.0.0-alpha.6 resolved it.

Had the same issue with my monorepo, can confirm updating to 26.0.0-alpha.6 fixed it 🙃

What electron version are you all using. I've spent 10 hours trying to fix this issue. Not sure why the package is so buggy.

Was having the issue with 24.13.3 before updating to 26.0.0-alpha.6
