Well, to me it always segfaults with:

--ozone-platform-hint=auto --enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer --enable-features=WaylandWindowDecorations

Or with:

--ozone-platform-hint=auto --enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer --enable-features=WaylandWindowDecorations,WebRTCPipeWireCapturer

Whether building and running with electron25, electron24 or electron23. So I don't know.

I use wayfire though, and xdg-desktop-portal-wlr as default and xdg-desktop-wlr-gtk for things not covered for the former...

Perhaps gnome does some gnome only tricks, but the electron version doesn't seem to be the key. It does fail differently though. Eearlier than electron25, slack doesn't even attempt to launch, on 25 it does attempt it.

It works for me on Gnome Wayland, I have the following installed but I'm not sure which one it uses:

extra/electron25 25.9.4-1 (60.4 MiB 212.7 MiB) (Installed)
extra/electron24 24.8.8-1 (59.1 MiB 207.7 MiB) (Installed)
extra/electron 1:25-1 (3.6 KiB 0.0 B) (Installed)

I have not been able to run slack-electron in Wayland for a couple of months due to a segfault. I just tried with electron26-bin and that seems to work fine, any strong opinions against depending on electron=26? Anyone else experiencing segfaults?

Do huddle, both the audio/video conference and screen sharing, work without xorg-xwayland, or it's required? Pure wayland with "--ozone-platform-hint=auto" is still of no help? What about "--enable-features=WebRTCPipeWireCapturer" and/or "--enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer"?

Even with xorg-xwayland, any other special config? I guess if using xwayland, then the ozone platform config shouldn't be used, or is it harmeless?

Can I say, even by using xwayland, that slack-electron works fine on wayland then?

Any hint from slack on when pure wayland will be feasible?

Thanks for the package

Please consider adding an optdepends on xwaylandvideobridge to work around the wayland screen sharing issue.

Cheers

Regarding login issues a quick workaround is to close the original slack instance before you click on "Open" from your browser.

For me screen sharing works. And the first time I can share the whole screen. Not only some windows. I have the following installed. 


slack-electron 4.34.121-1
electron 1:25-1
electron21 21.4.4-1
electron24 24.8.7-1
electron25 25.9.0-2
egl-wayland 2:1.1.12-1
wayland 1.22.0-1
wayland-protocols 1.32-1
xorg-xwayland 23.2.1-1

Screen-sharing is broken for me as well.

FYI - Screen-sharing is broken on Wayland using Electron25 and Slack 4.34.121

@roukoswarf Right, then the segfault isn't universal, I'll update the package.
