To fix this we needed to go back to execa 5.
The reason is that from 6 only ESM is supported in execa, BUT exlectron compiles to JS with CommonJS (actually transforming the
import
in require`. This would nt be an issue if we use dynamic imprt (like we did) BUT the dynamic import in electron is broken (see: electron/electron#38957) and will be fixed with electron 0.29.Will open an issue for that.
