I had the same issue launching Slack. Downgrading glibc and lib32-glibc solved the issue.
# pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/lib32-glibc-2.27-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz /var/cache/pacman/pkg/glibc-2.27-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

The problem that @archelaus is describing is related to glibc-2.28, most electron apps are affected. see the following threads:

Skype AUR has included the workaround described by wbdana and now it works. Maybe you could do the same so the package works automatically while this bug is solved upstream.

I have the same issue as @archelaus. I don't have a solution for it, but I see that the problem is not quite new and you can find something about it in the Google.

Another temporary solution would be to install slack from a snap package.
archelaus commented on 2018-08-07 20:18 (UTC)
Running slack returns : Segmentation fault (core dumped)

@wbdana thank you very much. It worked!
wbdana commented on 2018-08-07 17:34 (UTC)
@lira I also had the same problem. @hashstat 's solution (with @andris 's edit) worked for me (thanks you two!).
So what I did was:
mkdir /opt/glibc-2.27
sudo bsdtar xf /var/cache/pacman/pkg/glibc-2.27-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz --cd /opt/glibc-2.27
sudo patchelf --set-interpreter /opt/glibc-2.27/usr/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --set-rpath \$ORIGIN:\$ORIGIN/lib/:/opt/glibc-2.27/usr/lib/ /usr/bin/slack
Then I could run slack normally.

I cannot start the slack. I have the same problem of @bararchy. How can I resolve it?
