Huge step forward too !
The Workspace App infinite loading issue is fixed here. I forgot to set the DNS servers in
/etc/resolv.conf
of my chroot
.
I didn't realized probably because the hosts were resolved with the system
mounts I have configured in the fstab file and the systemd-resolve service of the base system.
I'm surprised I didn't see this problem sooner because to get around the fact that SteamOS is read-only and has only a poor application directory, I install everything in the chroot which contains an official Arch Linux, and so far an empty resolv file hasn't bothered him :D
I used tools such as squid
and zaproxy
proxies and the https_proxy
env variable to find evidences that the problem was at the HTTP transaction
scope with libcurl
If by your chance Workspace never loads you will certainly find like me proofs on the HTTP layer, Citrix uses many ways to authenticate itself and in case there is something wrong, it falls back to default methods, which, when they fail often does not return the real cause of the problem and hide the root cause

If you cannot build because of a missing tar ball or a failed sha256 checksum validation, then the package is most likely outdated and they have removed the old version already. In this case, please click on “Flag package out-of-date”.

Found a fix for "authentication service could not be contacted"
Edit the config file under /home/username/.ICAClient\WFClient.ini and add a new line SSLCiphers=ALL save file and run "killall AuthManagerDaemon ServiceRecord selfservice storebrowse"
Relaunch Citrix and you should be fine
