@7k5x Tried it before, but zoom won't get input from kime properly unless the kime library is built against the exact version of qt which is embeded in zoom. (5.12) The default lib under /usr/lib/qt/plugins/platforminputcontext won't work. So the PKGBUILD gets a ubuntu 20.04 docker (which comes out with qt 5.12) and builds inside it to get the correct shared object. It is painful, but can't be avoided (unless you use zoom-system-qt).

@7k5x I'm trying to follow zoom's embeded qt version. I've thought of making packages for each qt version, but I got into these problems- 1. Arch usually accepts packages per major gtk/qt version. It doesn't really fit to have a package built against qt 5.12.8. 2. The issue with zoom is not common. (if flatpaks are excluded) 3. There is no good place to actually store the shared objects. I've thought of placing at /opt/kime/*, but the action is not intended by the upstream, and I think it's a bad manner of doing that. So I decided to place it directly under /opt/zoom/platforminputcontexts. For now, it would produce kime's latest version's qt lib built against qt 5.12.8.
