@mod20: I'm not sure, sorry. I don't have access to a SSO-enabled Zoom account to test with. If you want to submit a bug or patch upstream, this is the Firejail profile for Zoom: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/blob/master/etc/profile-m-z/zoom.profile

Is this working with SSO login? Couldn't get it to work using neither Firefox or Chrome...

@snowball I use a WM (bspwm); mainly access icons through gtk3 app (rofi). Might be gtk related.

@fordprefect as just a wrapper around a launcher; this package is appropriate to be hosted on AUR. There are very similar approaches (like pacman-cleanup-hook, or reflector-timer on the top of my head) that don't have external sources. For couple lines of text; having an external repository would just be extra layers of abstraction.

@bbaserdem Updated. Out of curiosity, what desktop environment are you using? I don't have that issue on XFCE4.

@fordprefect I'd prefer not to, sorry. If someone else with experience maintaining packages wishes to do so, I don't mind handing over maintainership.

The zoom official pkg links the desktop launcher icon to Zoom.png but XDG specification does not support icon filetypes. If you change the line in ZoomFirejail.desktop from Icon=Zoom.png to Icon=Zoom; it will display the proper icon. Currently; it cannot find the icon and displays an empty icon. The zoom pkgbuild already includes this patch.

Thanks for maintaining this useful package! I could not find a reference but as far as I understand it is not welcome to host package sources directly in the AUR git for several reasons, even for very small code snippets. Could you move your stuff to a public hosting e.g. a Github project? Positive side effect would be easier reuse in other distros.

@iltep64 Thanks for figuring this out! I added your --shell=none workaround in zoom-firejail 0.1.5.

@snowball @hockdudu I've encountered the same issue, while using fish. Another workaround in the script is to set the $SHELL environment variable to /bin/bash, or provide either the --shell=none or --shell=/bin/bash flag to firejail (before the -- arg separator).

It seems like an upstream bug with Firejail, as the documentation does say it defaults to bash, but the code behavior looks different. I filed a bug report.

actually, maybe not. it seems like it has more to do with Firejail and how it interacts with Zoom (the calendar link opens a second firejail version, I think), rather than the legacy zoom client still running. I think this error might just be something I have to deal with.

It works! Thank you so much snowball!

It does seem like there may still be one issue. Even after rebooting, each time I click an an xdg-open link in Chromium or Brave, the zoom-firejail client says that I'm currently signed in on another device. I don't see two copies of Zoom running in the gnome system tray, and I definitely never started the regular zoom client. I think somehow it is still running in the background though after restarting?
