Please, don't ask for add lsb-release as dependency. In Arch Linux this package is not needed to run Slack Desktop.

And before asking for any other dependency as make or patch or whatever, please read the wiki.

@msenol NO. There is a lot of issues caused by install libappindicator-gtk3. If you want install it, you do, but I don't recommend.

pacman -Sy libappindicator-gtk3

solves the issue with tray icon. Can we add this add a dependency?

@ewhitestone Minor version ahead? The latest version is 4.1.1 that match with package version. If you consider that the package is outdated you can use the button Flag package out-of-date and provide the URL of latest version.

How can I help keep this up to date? The current version seemed to have a memory leak, but I upgraded to the latest pretty easily by modifying the version number and hash in the PKGBUILD file.

Is this something that I can contribute back? Slack is a minor version ahead now.

Hey guys, in my computer the tray icon is not always showing up that blue ball anymore when there are new messages - sometimes not even the red one for messages directed to me. Is anybody else experiencing this issue?

To fix the very small tray icon in HiDPI displays, you can add

env XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Unity

To your desktop file. It'd be good to include the fix in the AUR package unless it breaks non-HiDPI displays.

@raul dark mode works for me on the current version 4.0.2-2

raul commented on 2019-09-12 17:13 (UTC)

is there a channel besides git where we can get this version? https://slackhq.com/dark-mode-for-slack-desktop

I have to add that the packet lsb-release is a dependency of slack. I recently had a problem where Slack's window would not launch at all because it was failing to run the command "lsb-release -a" (see the log below). After installing it the program finally managed to launch.

The logs:

warn: Couldn't get Linux distro info from lsb_release, trying fallback to get L inux distro info { "error": { "stack": "Error: Command failed: lsb_release -a --short\n/bin/sh: lsb_release: command not found\n\n at ChildProcess.exithandler (child_process.js:299:12)\n at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:182:13)\n at ChildProcess.EventEmitter.emit (domain.js:442:20)\n at maybeClose (internal/child_process.js:9 62:16)\n at Socket.stream.socket.on (internal/child_process.js:381:11)\n at Socket.emit (events.js :182:13)\n at Socket.EventEmitter.emit (domain.js:442:20)\n at Pipe._handle.close (net.js:606:12)" , "message": "Command failed: lsb_release -a --short\n/bin/sh: lsb_release: command not found\n", "killed": false, "code": 127, "signal": null, "cmd": "lsb_release -a --short", "stdout": "", "stderr": "/bin/sh: lsb_release: command not found\n" },

Hope it helps

@bakgwailo This fixed it for me, too. I'm also on a reasonably fresh Arch install, so I'm not sure how this got into my local.conf
