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.

Would it be possible to use the packaged electron instead of installing yet another chromium binary?

I was not able to install the package, until I changed the patch file this way: babjak@goldencut][~/temp/AUR/slack-desktop]<master *>[17:23:08] git diff diff --git a/slack-desktop.patch b/slack-desktop.patch index 72bdf57..96b09ce 100644 --- a/slack-desktop.patch +++ b/slack-desktop.patch @@ -4,7 +4,7 @@ Comment=Slack Desktop GenericName=Slack Client for Linux -Exec=/usr/bin/slack --disable-gpu %U -+Exec=env LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcurl.so.3 /usr/bin/slack --disable-gpu %U ++Exec=env LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libcurl.so.4 /usr/bin/slack --disable-gpu %U -Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/slack.png +Icon=slack Type=Application In another words, I had to bump-up the version of libcurl. Anyhow, it seems that "libcurl.so.3" symlink is available AFTER installation.

`patch` is not listed as a dependency yet it is required during the build process. Or are these only run time dependencies?

I have no issues copying or pasting into or out of Slack.

@lembang I've also lost the ability to copy/paste on this version

lembang commented on 2017-03-01 17:10 (UTC)

I lost an ability to paste into slack is anyone has the same issue on the new version?

CapSel commented on 2017-01-18 00:01 (UTC)

The new version came out.

@hcorion welcome to electron applications....

hcorion commented on 2017-01-10 21:40 (UTC)

Just wanted to note that the slack application is (comparatively ) massive, larger than python3 and the jvm (including jdk and jre) in the /usr/lib/ directory, coming in at 149.7MB
