For anyone who wants to make raw image data pasting work as mentioned here, please use webkit2gtk-imgpaste as the dependency.

Yes. For me the same error with a failed validity check like Convex encountered.

@Convex Thank you for reporting. However, I checked the checksum which is correct and the installation goes smoothly for me. Don't know what's going on there. Can someone else confirm this failure?

@DevZu9 Thank you for using it! Could you please create an issue with an explanation here? https://github.com/eneshecan/whatsapp-for-linux/issues/new/choose

Hello! my name is Maxim. Recently I started using Linux Manjaro c xfce4. I really liked your application for using WhatsApp. The only thing is that my tray icon is not displayed correctly at all. The fact is that the icon always looks like I received a message, but it's not. Can I ask you to fix this error and make an update. Sincerely yours. p.s. I apologize for my English, but I am not a native speaker and use an online translator.

Note to the people having problems updating! We recently switched from libappindicator-gtk3 to libayatana-appindicator and there is a problem with the package. Please see my comment on https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libayatana-appindicator/#comment-845437

@limokig421 What version are you using? Sure, I can help to debug since I get this complaint a lot lately. Please clone the repo from https://github.com/eneshecan/whatsapp-for-linux and see the Build & Run section in README. Afterward, maybe you could debug the application with gdb and see where it breaks.

It works on my older arch machine, but on a new one it fails with:

(process:2237): Gtk-WARNING **: 14:34:46.477: Locale not supported by C library.
        Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Settings: Failed load ui resource: Invalid byte sequence in conversion input

can you help me debug this problem?
