To get automatic login, install a package that provides org.freedesktop.secrets, e.g. gnome-keyring.

To get a systray icon, install libappindicator-gtk3. On GNOME, then install the appindicator extension.

Ok, we continue on this pkgbase 🙂

I mean the lack of feedback since the deletion request. It is kinda implies you are not interested in repacking the snap.

Thanks for all your work anyway. I'm not sure what to do with this package now though.

@Hanabishi "judging by lack of feedback", trilader's 1st post is at 23:07 in my timezone and I am responding at 06:08.

Works like a charm, thank you!

Here is my take on in: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/skypeforlinux-bin

Repackaging the snap would be a good idea

I don't like the proposed changes from a technical standpoint. (E.g. why trying to port changes from old versions? Why returning useless old launcher script?)

But the idea itself already was proposed in TU response. Although, judging by lack of feedback, I suppose @bulletmark is not interested in it.

An AUR package would be great but let first see if bulletmark will merge your changes in this package.

trilader commented on 2024-03-04 14:24 (UTC)

@maderios @mozo You can see the files/changes in the gist link in my comment.

I'll add a separate AUR package if @bulletmark doesn't want to "just" take/adapt my changes and continue to take care of this package.

I'm also not opposed to co-maintaining this package.
