I think I found a solution.
$ sudo dnf install libXScrnSaver-develFedora reports libXScrnSaver as installed, but searching the repos I found libXScrnSaver-devel, and installing it worked, but curiously it also installed a dependency: libXScrnSaver itself!
So we would include the dummy library in the package itself? I’m happy to give this a go today. I do wonder if we should approach the Electron guys, and see if we can fix this by not making Electron depend on it if its really not being used.
