Hi community, I did take over maintenance for this package, since I need it for work. It's my first package here on the AUR, so please be forgiving for any mistakes.

If there is a problem with the checksums, flag the package out-of-date at the top of the page. I'll update the PKGBUILD as soon as possible.

For the Problem (blank screen after trying to sign in) that happens on Wayland: run webex using env -u WAYLAND_DISPLAY webex, then you can login and no longer need to launch it using that prefix command. EDIT: i would actually recommend to add env -u WAYLAND_DISPLAY in /usr/share/applications/webex.desktop to always start with that prefix, since some windows that pop up for editing messages don't react if you don't start it with it.

bsdtar -xf --exclude and install -Dm644 may reduce rm and mkdir in your PKGBUILD.

I'm trying to drop libs in the package since it fails to build on small /tmp if BUILDDIR=/tmp/makepkg . Replacing Qt5 is difficult. But, how about replacing networking libs ?

I had the same issue as @Idespisenickname and @kachtra: I could enter my email address but then could not continue to the page to enter my password. For me switching my KDE session from Wayland to X11 fixed the issue.

I am currently working at sompo, and they use their domain to login "@sompo-intl.com" which webex tries to reach, but it just displays a infinite loading page. Is there a fix in the horizon, or if someone has had this issue can help?

Dear @nonshankus, thank you for your suggestions. No VPN is involved. I have the official Webex Linux app (used in this PKGBUILD) installed on a Debian 12 machine and the login works flawlessly, i.e. the app loads the institutional sign on page and login proceeds as usual. There must be something that prevents the AUR webex-bin from doing that.

I can't see anything when a participant shares an application but I can when they're sharing their whole screen. Chat box is also missing, which I kinda need both of these functions.

@kachtra @Idespisenickname I have seen similar issues for organizations using a web proxy, i.e. Webex is bit picky accepting the configuration via environment variables.

For narrowing down the issue it is important to understand if your are connected via VPN, when you start your Webex client and if the logon page of your organization is reachable when connected that way, or if it would also need e.g. a correct web proxy configuration.

Dear @moritzo, thank you for maintaining the package. Installation is a breeze. However, I experience the same issue with login that @kachtra experiences. Do you have any idea how we could start figuring out the problem?
