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.

Thanks @hashstat. There's only one more problem: Clicking links doesn't seem to open the browser.

Seems slack-desktop fails to find libffmpeg for me:

also libnode.

Going to /usr/lib/slack i can see both libs.

@polo tyvm! I also was given the URL on freenode - should have asked there first. Thanks again

@hashstat N00b question here, but how do I get my hands on glibc-2.27-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz? I don't have it in my cache?

I found a workaround that allows slack to use the previous version of glibc without downgrading.

Do the following as root:

# Extract glibc 2.27-3
mkdir /opt/glibc-2.27
bsdtar xf /var/cache/pacman/pkg/glibc-2.27-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz --cd /opt/glibc-2.27

# Patch the slack binary to point to glibc-2.27
pacman -S patchelf
patchelf --set-interpreter /opt/glibc-2.27/usr/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /usr/bin/slack

Now you can launch slack as any user: LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/glibc-2.27/usr/lib/ slack &>/dev/null &
