This happens using the linux-x64/node-67.node prebuild. 2.2.6 works for me, so I guess this was introduced very recently? Any suggestions?

[emilbayes]

Hmm, this is strange. Our canary setup has not reported any errors and we cannot reproduce: https://travis-ci.org/sodium-friends/sodium-native-citgm/jobs/494464274

Are we correct in assuming you're using latest Node (11.x)? That's what I guessed from node-67 (ABI 67)

[mafintosh]

Also can you share the output of ldd node-67.node ?

[jfr3000]

Yes, I'm using 11.9 but I tried different node versions, and the result was the same :(

ldd ./node_modules/sodium-native/prebuilds/linux-x64/node-67.node
	linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007ffc8adf7000)

[emilbayes]

@jfr3000 It all seems normal to me. You can try going to the sodium-native directory in our node_modules and run npm install from there. That should recompile in your case, but I just want to see what happens.

[jfr3000]

Did that, and same result 🤷‍♀️ @regular is having the same issue on his machine. Guess I'll stick with the workaround for now...

[christianbundy]

I can also reproduce this with Electron 2 (ABI 57, same as Node 8.0.0). Here's what I'm seeing:

[emilbayes]

@christianbundy can you please run lld like above and report back? Also OS details would be helpful. We have a canary that test every night and have done extensive manual testing (we’re working on an electron app on macOS and Linux) and have not had these issues, so we suspect that something is wrong with your dynamic linker perhaps

[christianbundy]

Sorry for the noise, I've tried reinstalling with npm install and now it seems to work. I'm not sure what was going on but it's gone now. Maybe my machine is haunted?

[regular]

@christianbundy you machine is probably alright. I am having this problem since a month or so, on both Linux and OSX. It happens so often that I've learned to live with it and my zsh autocompletes npm i s to npm i sodium-native@2.2.6

[mafintosh]

@regular we have a hard time reproducing, does this happen to you regularly with 2.3.0?

[emilbayes]

@regular Can you please provide details of your OS and the ldd output so we can debug further?

[emilbayes]

@regular @jfr3000 Are you running sodium-native through electron? Just fell over this: electron-userland/electron-builder#3590

[emilbayes]

I know what is going on now thanks to @andrewosh. Two different versions of libsodium are trying to be loaded, both compatible but one has a few more features than the other. It is something I've been working on for a while but never saw having practical relevance. Will try to come up with a fix for the new release

[mixmix]

Oh look, a scuttlebutt party.

I'm hitting this bug with electron-builder (this branch of patchbay). What I'm seeing is that npm start works, but when I try to build a release I get this error.
Messed with build config (made it more wasteful, less fancy) and now I'm not getting misaligned libsodium
