Lbry-desktop: Can't build last version

[btzr-io]

The Issue

I can't build the latest branch v16

Steps to reproduce

1. Clone branch v16
2. run ./build.sh

Expected behaviour

./build.sh should make a working build.

Actual behaviour

The build process is closed before installing dependencies:

+ false
+ OSNAME=linux
++ node -e 'console.log(require("/home/btzr/prototype/lbry-app/app/package.json").lbrySettings.lbrynetDaemonVersion)'
+ DAEMON_VER=0.16.0rc9
++ node -e 'console.log(require("/home/btzr/prototype/lbry-app/app/package.json").lbrySettings.lbrynetDaemonUrlTemplate)'
+ DAEMON_URL_TEMPLATE=https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/releases/download/vDAEMONVER/lbrynet-daemon-vDAEMONVER-OSNAME.zip
++ echo https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/releases/download/v0.16.0rc9/lbrynet-daemon-v0.16.0rc9-OSNAME.zip
++ sed s/OSNAME/linux/g
+ DAEMON_URL=https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/releases/download/v0.16.0rc9/lbrynet-daemon-v0.16.0rc9-linux.zip
+ DAEMON_VER_PATH=/home/btzr/prototype/lbry-app/build/daemon.ver
+ echo /home/btzr/prototype/lbry-app/build/daemon.ver
/home/btzr/prototype/lbry-app/build/daemon.ver
+ [[ ! -f /home/btzr/prototype/lbry-app/build/daemon.ver ]]
+ wget --quiet https://github.com/lbryio/lbry/releases/download/v0.16.0rc9/lbrynet-daemon-v0.16.0rc9-linux.zip -O /home/btzr/prototype/lbry-app/build/daemon.zip

after that I start the app and then get this:

A JavaScript error occurred in the main process

My problem is that the build ends before installing the dependencies from:
https://github.com/lbryio/lbry-app/blob/master/app/package.json#L13

I'm seeing the same issue - stops after the wget on rc9 daemon. When I start the app, it can't seem to find the daemon. Going to try building from scratch again.

After fresh re-build, can confirm I am getting the same as @btzr-io

It's pointed at a draft (non-public) RC. This will be fixed when 0.16.0 comes out which should happen soon. If you want to fix your build locally, change rc9 to rc8 in package.json.
