puppeteer: [Bug]: Not working with Amazon Linux 2023/6.0.3

Minimal, reproducible example

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

(async () => {
  const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
  const page = await browser.newPage();
  await page.setContent("<p>Hello world!</p>");

  // const pageHeight = await page.evaluate(() => {
  //   return window.innerHeight;
  // });
  // const millimeters = pageHeight * (25.4 / 96);

  const buffer = await page.pdf({
    format: "A4",
    printBackground: true,
    margin: {
      left: "0px",
      top: "0px",
      right: "0px",
      bottom: "0px",
    },
  });

  await browser.close();
})();

Error string

For others who stumble upon this (for `x64`):

I am currently using “puppeteer”: “^22.4.1” and AMI amazon/aws-elasticbeanstalk-amzn-2023.3.20240219.64bit-eb_nodejs20_amazon_linux_2023-hvm-2024-02-20T16-40, and the solution for me was this .ebextensions configuration file:

packages:
  yum:
    libXcomposite: []
    libXdamage: []
    libXrandr: []
    libxkbcommon: []
    pango: []
    alsa-lib: []
    atk: []
    at-spi2-atk: []
    cups-libs: []
    libdrm: []
    mesa-libgbm: []

I also needed to install some fonts for my use case, which rendered the additional packages in my .ebextensions configuration file:

packages:
  yum:
    fontconfig: []
    dejavu-sans-fonts: []
    dejavu-sans-mono-fonts: []
    dejavu-serif-fonts: []
    liberation-mono-fonts: []
    liberation-sans-fonts: []
    liberation-serif-fonts: []
    google-noto-emoji-fonts: []
    google-noto-fonts-common: []
    google-noto-sans-fonts: []
    google-noto-serif-fonts: []

Even though the question is about arm64 and not x64, I believe others may find this helpful.

@raphaelsetin you are my hero.

For those using regular Amazon Linux 2023: sudo yum install libXcomposite libXdamage libXrandr libxkbcommon pango alsa-lib atk at-spi2-atk cups-libs libdrm mesa-libgbm

Chrome needs these dependencies https://pptr.dev/troubleshooting#chrome-doesnt-launch-on-linux If you have browser builds provided by Amazon Linux you can use those (if the version is compatible) and provide the path to the browser binary using the executablePath launch option.
