I confirm having the exact same issue.

When running the builder on my local machine (Ubuntu 20), everything works smoothly, but on the Github runner, it fails.
Cleaning the dist folder prior to builder the app does not solve anything.

The regression started to happen with electron-builder@22.11.1, so for the time being, I'm stuck in 22.10.5.

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs.

I also have this problem, I don't know how to solve it
