Hey guys, slack support got back to me and v2.0.4 now fixes the UncaughtTypeError that caused the application to get stuck on "connecting" while burning CPU. I can confirm it's working now.
Since the maintainer hasn't gotten around to it yet, here's a working PKGBUILD for v2.0.4: https://gist.github.com/iamthebot/e4a1b09e6b081ce9885be80429456adf

I see back in January bin_bash stated he was having issues with the "taskbar" icon not working, but instead showing the default "Window icon" (http://i.imgur.com/SR30iTe.png).
I've already installed v2.0.4 to see if it fixed the issue, but to no avail. I reported it upstream, but wondering if it's just myself and bin_bash with the issue? I'm on Xfce.

Slack support got back to me: "The connectivity issues you were seeing should be fixed in the latest version of the Linux app that was released yesterday afternoon."
2.0.4 is out, but I've not tested it yet, waiting for this to update.

Just FYI I reached out to slack support a few weeks ago with this issue (our team's on their plus plan). They've confirmed plenty of reports with the same issue in the logs and are actively working on it.

I'm experiencing a bug with Antergos KDE and slack-desktop:
Slack doesnt connect to the slack team, even though it seems like it does connect to the server, because it does request the login credentials for it...
Terminal output gives me this:
"Creating Slack Application
(electron) submitUrl is deprecated. Use submitURL instead.
(electron) ipc module is deprecated. Use require("electron").ipcMain instead.
[Error: Failed to get path]
(electron) loadUrl is deprecated. Use loadURL instead.
(electron) 'clicked' event is deprecated. Use 'click' event instead."

The bug is very similar to what I get in Epiphany too. It starts to load and then hangs with the spinner before going anywhere. The only console error I can see is: "Unrecognized Content-Security-Policy directive 'referrer'." Sometimes Epiphany will load Slack, and this error is showing up at a later point. So my guess is whenever the JS-engine is trying to deal this faulty named directive, it will give up on executing the rest of the code (for logging in etc). However it may be unrelated too. There is no stacktrace on the error. I've given this feedback to Slack, but not sure how serious they take the /feedback function in Slack as actual bug reports.

@Brottweiler, then let's see if Slack Support can give some feedback cause I don't have idea that can be failing.

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
orpatch
or whatever, please read the wiki.
