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.

Please forcefully remove any old *_orig packages lying around that match the current version. Zoom messed up their download portal and for a moment advertised old versions under a new name.

hi there, today i could not login into a zoom session because they did not update the available for arch although they stated its 5.6.3.16775.0418 but is an old one.

As workaround i build the package via debtap from .deb to pkg.tar.xz. Hope it's helpfull.

You should update the sha512sum to the new value: 68168b5841dc1700695be5628fcfc042836809f7a4ddc9d2746b081d6256e8285f12e6830b1b39f849c1848c92d893b7041bcb9e8c24e9f5a3db6991c3768d6c Currently a wrong one is listed in the PKGBUILD.

@Nikita790 Sorry, according to zoom it is a hard dependency.

Nikita790 commented on 2021-04-20 04:47 (UTC)

Can we get rid of the ibus dependancy? it seems to work fine without it

@yywrobbie You are absolutely right! Downloading the package via their website is broken too. Sorry for unflagging the package that quickly. We will have to wait for zoom to fix this issue.

It appears there's a problem with the upstream 5.6.3 url (https://zoom.us/client/5.6.16775.0418/zoom_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz) where the downloaded file shows it's the 5.6.1 version (13632.0328). As a result, this AUR package (5.6.3-1) only gives you version 5.6.1 for the time being.

Latest version of zoom makes awesome wm crash. I use arch + awesome wm + picom. It happens specially when I change it from floating to tiling or full screen and vice versa. With the appImage (same version) it doesn't happen. I can't replicate it, it happens randomly and I'm not 100% sure that zoom is the culprit. It could be some libraries.

@caduser2020 You're right! Thanks! I'll add it with the next release. Given that most users will have pulseaudio or gtk3 installed, they will not notice that this dependency is missing.
