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.

Anyone else having problems with screensharing? When I start it there's a white overlay over my entire screen with the typical green borders, but I can't see anything on my desktop.

Hi guys, My Slack here (2.8.2-3) is not tab-completing anymore if I start typing a name without the "@" symbol. Is anybody else having this problem? Cheers!

Please note that the launcher contains a `--disable-gpu` flag. If you notice poor performance or glitches (parts of screen disappearing on hover) remove the flag, you can also launch `slack &` from terminal to test first without modifying the launcher. The `Hardware Acceleration` checkbox in settings apparently has no effect.

If somebody wants a dark theme (instead of the light one), then please: 1. Open `/usr/lib/slack/resources/app.asar.unpacked/src/static/ssb-interop.js` 2. Append the following code: document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function() { $.ajax({ url: 'https://cdn.rawgit.com/laCour/slack-night-mode/master/css/raw/black.css', success: function(css) { $("<style></style>").appendTo('head').html(css); } }); }); Source: https://github.com/laCour/slack-night-mode/issues/73#issuecomment-287467332

Thanks. :)

@WorMzy You are right, I forgot the libcurl-compat. Fixed and quoted all variables. ;)

WorMzy commented on 2017-10-19 13:57 (UTC)

Great, thanks! A couple of things though: * you should still depend on libcurl-compat, since you patch the desktop file to preload it * you forgot to fix the pkgdir quoting (any instances of either $srcdir or $pkgdir should be enclosed in doublequotes, since they can contain spaces)

ogarcia commented on 2017-10-19 11:26 (UTC)

@WorMzy sorry, I had not had time to check depends in a clean install. I fix it, and now we have the minimal set of depends for make it work.

WorMzy commented on 2017-10-19 08:29 (UTC)

@ogarcia: I'm not sure if you missed my comment from the start of September, but the gvfs and libgnome-keyring dependences are definitely not needed to run the application. Even if you have determined that they are necessary for some features, they should be optdepends with explanations on what they are actually needed for. Also, the unquoted pkgdir instances should still be fixed in any case.

I can't close notifications using esc, or entering a new message. I have to physically click on the 'x' to do so. I know, that's probably not an issue with this particular package, but god this program sucks. Edit: Still have a blank icon in Openbox...
