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If there is a problem with the checksums, flag the package out-of-date at the top of the page.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.

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?

Hi @moritzo I'm not able to add a virtual background, which is required for my job. could this be updated please?

Hi @moritzo, my organisation uses Webex but I can't log in with my work email, it tries to load the logon page for a bit and then stops. Any idea what could be causing this?

In the last update I removed the libsecret hack: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=webex-bin&id=39832982cf24da1daa96e04f3682bb816aefeae6

Please report if this causes any problems.

You can use the cmd updpkgsums inside the git repo to DIY should this reoccur.

@moritzo You are right, there is /opt/Webex/lib/libcrypto.so.1.1, but apparently the library is not searched at that place. openssl-1.1 provides /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.1, where it is found by webex.

I could run webex with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/Webex/lib webex, then it works. Maybe you can patch webex.desktop to add this? Of course this would be a hack, the app should find its libraries on its own I guess...
