The repository has been updated.
Builds completed successfully 😅
It may be another 24 hours before the deb/rpm repository is updated, since that’s on a cronjob from @paulcarroty
It looks like MS has done significant work on updating their build process since the last release. I’m working to update the gulp targets we call to conform to the changes.
Have opened PR #237 with changes. I was able to produce the Linux and Darwin builds on this branch using the new gulp targets (and adding a keep alive wrapper for a long running task): https://github.com/stripedpajamas/vscodium/releases/tag/1.37.0
After initial checks run, I will merge and hopefully we will be back to normal.
