Tested 6.2.0-1. Sharing works for me, but it still crashes after stopping. The workaround for me is still downgrading pipewire and libpipewire to 1.0.7 before meetings.

@edh - That's not the answer I was hoping for (I was really hoping we could get it to launch without xwayland), but at least I know I'm not missing something.

Some ~/.config/zoomus.conf updates:

  • SSO Login: I don't have qt5-webengine installed, and the ebeddedBrowserForSSOLogin line doesn't exist in my config zoomus.conf. SSO login works just fine (issues with Firefox containers aside).
  • Audio: I am using Pipewire via pipewire-pulse. system.audio.type defaulted to alsa for me (or I changed it without realizing it). I probably could have installed pipewire-alsa and fixed my issues, but I set system.autio.type=pulse (a lucky guess) and this worked. This should work for anyone using straight PulseAudio as well.

If anyone finds documentation on ~/.config/zoomus.conf, please let us know.

I contacted the zoom support on 13th July 2016 and tried to lure them into creating a proper PKGBUILD respectively adopting this one, considering they are providing a package over very none standard ways to the Arch Linux community (downloading via a *foreign* site) and not through the official repo or the AUR. However there was little to no progress so far.

@AchmadFathoni These dependencies are not required because they are pre-packaged with zoom. Since no source code is available for zoom, this is a plain re-packaging of the original zoom package. The package does not link against the system Qt but instead provides its own versions of these libraries.

Looking at zoom binary dynamic link, it seems that zoom needs qt5-3d and qt5-gamepad as dependency.

zeroconf commented on 2021-12-13 21:13 (UTC)

Then we need just ignore that, as suggested here.

edh commented on 2021-12-13 20:20 (UTC)

@zeroconf There is no such thing as rebuilding zoom. This is a binary package with no source code provided whatsoever. This in itself is a bad situation but unfortunately the one we are in. Furthermore, most dependencies are bundled within the package itself since zoom requires old and outdated versions of many libraries.

Please investigate and think about the output of the commands you are posting a bit more before coming up with conclusions.

After updating system, rebuilding package:

yay --cleanmenu --rebuild -Syu zoom

... rebooting system, checkrebuild command claims that package zoom still needs to be rebuilt, although it is working properly. I hope this can be fixed. Below is the verbosed output of missing libraries locations.

$ checkrebuild -v

Got Screen Sharing to work on Gnome+Wayland (Manjaro) using the solution posted by @gj545rndmu

Here is what you have to do in detail:

  1. ALT + F2 to open Gnome Command Prompt
  2. Enter lg to open Looking Glass
  3. In the new Command Prompt that opens then, set global.context.unsafe_mode = true

Screen Sharing should work now.

Note: Much to everyone's surprise, enabling the unsafe_mode is considered unsafe. So take care and be sure to set it to false again when you don't need it anymore.

@Adrades You should raise your issue with the upstream project, i.e. with zoom, the company.

Adrades commented on 2021-11-25 10:11 (UTC)

Thanks for the package !

I have an issue with my address mail, I can't put it in the field. I tested writing, deleting characters and Ctrl-V.

Maybe it doesn't fit the regex, my address is formatted like: name.surname1--surname2@server it's the '--' that can't fit in.

To whom should I complain about this issue ?
