Also, when clicking on a package in the list of "featured packages" (in this case
Hydrogen), I'm taken to the package view, displayingLoading Hydrogen..., preceded by an hourglass, indefinitely. ClickingInstall, however, works as expected (package successfully installs).lkashef commentedon Feb 28, 2020
Hi @jlangvand, thanks for the report.
Can you please share more information if you had any log messages from Developer Tools for example?
tayspen72 commentedon Mar 2, 2020
I'm having this same issue. Installed on Arch Linux. Searching for any package, shows
Searching packages for 'x'...but does not load any package list or update the page.@lkashef What sort of log would you like? I can reproduce as needed.
jlangvand commentedon Mar 3, 2020
If you mean the DevTools console, @lkashef, no messages appear there. Please tell me if there's anything else I can provide that could be of interest. @tayspen72 seeing the same issue indicates this bug is somehow related to Arch, I suppose.

The search for packages to install (Preferences -> Install) doesn't work.
[oleg ~] $ atom --version
Atom: 1.44.0
Electron: 4.2.12
Chrome: 69.0.3497.128
Node: 10.11.0
Running on Arch linux 5.5.6-arch1-1 and 5.5.7-arch1-1.
What I tried to do:
env LANG = en_US.UTF-8 atom
atom --clear-window-state
I can install only one of the 8 packages that are visible at the top of the list (Featured Package).
ol-liu commentedon Mar 3, 2020
Good news! Packages can be installed using the terminal command: apm install.
For example, "apm install color-picker"
:)

This works for me too, and is how I've survived the last week since I made the switch to Arch ;)

apmshould work for now, thanks for the tip @OlegWebmaster and @jlangvand for the confirmation.It looks like an OS related issue, I labeled it with
needs-reproductionto try reproducing this on a Linux Arch machine.mariu22sz commentedon Mar 9, 2020
I have experienced the same problem on Manjaro Kyria 19.0.2 :)
tayspen72 commentedon Mar 10, 2020
Tested again today on and it works. Problem must be fixed now. v1.44.0-1 from pacman.. I don't quite know what was causing it but it seems to point not at Atom because it hasn't changed..
jlangvand commentedon Mar 10, 2020
Works for me too. Probably the fault was in some library outside Atom. I suppose this issue can be closed now.
mariu22sz commentedon Mar 14, 2020
