@Rhinoceros - I finally got screen sharing to work under KDE with Wayland. Looks like I'm using the same versions as you:

  • Zoom 6.2.10
  • pipewire 1.2.6

I followed the Screen share section on the Zoom wiki page:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Zoom_Meetings

The only thing I didn't need to do was set XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=gnome. I followed the other steps, and now I can choose my desktop/window to share. Prior to following the wiki I couldn't stop screen sharing without the hanging issue, which I was experiencing prior to 6.2.10.

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.

@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 Furthermore, most dependencies are bundled within the package itself since zoom requires old and outdated versions of many libraries.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.

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 ?

@kelen

Please read the previous comments on this exact topic!

kelen commented on 2021-11-19 08:53 (UTC)

May be we should change the ibus from depends to optdepends.

edh commented on 2021-11-15 14:37 (UTC)

@kleini Zoom is a dead simple package to maintain since they do not provide the means to build the package so I think I'll be fine. Thanks for the offer though.

@edh If you like to get help with upgrades, you can add me please as a co-maintainer?
