[Bug 1790966] Re: Electron apps segfault on glibc 2.28 (cosmic)

[Ventusfahrer]

I ran in the CrashPlanDesktop crash problem after upgrading to Ubuntu 19.04 (18.10 had probably the same problem). electron 2.08 fixes the problem too. 
Just to give you a hint to the place where to copy from: https://github.com/electron/electron/releases/tag/v2.0.8. 
Pick the right electron-2.0.8-<plattform>.zip, unpack the archive an copy every file in the root directory of the archive to the electron directory of crashplan (in my case /usr/local/crashplan/electron). That's it.

Title:
  Electron apps segfault on glibc 2.28 (cosmic)

Status in glibc package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Electron apps (like Atom) give a segfault when trying to start them on Ubuntu Cosmic.
  Apparently this is related to a certain commit that is part of glibc 2.28.

  Could the workaround as e.g. Arch has implemented also be applied to
  Ubuntu, otherwise many pre-compiled applications will not work when
  Cosmic will be released.
