@Badabum, @mozo Thank you. Perhaps the problem is global. I haven't found a workaround yet. I am using Xfce if it matters.

@Stelian Same problem here.

@Stelian, I have the same problem. I can't make any calls from desktop, or redirect a call to PC. A week or two ago everything worked fine.

Could someone confirm this problem: Viber Linux can not start or receive calls (on laptop). Other users do not receive notifications when I am calling. When someone calls me there is only a notification sound, but not a way to accept the call.

Some of the colored emojis render as black and white. When I first installed viber some emoticons would show up black and white emojis and some would just show up as squares. So, I installed the noto-fonts-emoji package. The effect was that the squares were converted into colored emojis just the way I wanted them to be but the original black and white emojis remained as they are. How to get the black and white emojis to be colored?

Does anyone know how to get notifications to work on plasma? On any other GTK-based DE they work just fine but not in plasma...

God this version is quite buggy, Viber scrolls super fast with touchpad and it freezes when I move it to second monitor. Hopefully they will release new bugfix version soon.

@teras run LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/viber/lib /usr/bin/viber

@teras ldd for viber on my machine shows it uses bundled libraries

ldd /opt/viber/Viber | grep qt
libQt5Sql.so.5 => /opt/viber/lib/libQt5Sql.so.5 (0x00007f610e0a8000)

After the latest QT update (which might be the reason @wooque has this issue -- I have it too), Viber became obviously slower. After discussions with people who use Viber under Ubuntu, I found out that, although my Viber version links on system wide QT libraries, when checked with ld, on my friend's it uses the private folder under /opt/viber/lib instead.

For example, for me ldd shows this entry libQt5Sql.so.5 => /usr/lib/libQt5Sql.so.5 (0x00007f795f6ec000) while for my friend on Ubuntu this libQt5Sql.so.5 => /opt/viber/lib/libQt5Sql.so.5 (0x00007f905eb4f000)

I believe the authors of Viber would like the second behavior, otherwise they wouldn't distribute the QT libraries. Any idea how to fix this on Arch?
