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.

Thought users of this package should be aware. Zoom is now building arch packages. https://zoom.us/download?os=linux

@Kalinda

This is not what is happening in the PKGBUILD! Please read up on how PKGBUILDs works and how makepkg processed them. The ArchWiki is a great source for information on both of those topics.

About your question: The PKGBUILD basically just recompresses the binary (the orig file) which is provided by upstream and adapts some variables. The output is the non-orig package. It once had a "proper" packaging function but by now it has descended into just a simple AUR wrapper for the upstream Arch package.

So I noticed this builds two packages, a regular zoom and a zoom with _orig at the end. What is the purpose the _orig package? Which one should be installed?

Thanks

Login with Google Accounts is not working. When clicking the "Login with Google" Button tons of messages like kde-open5: /opt/zoom/libQt5Core.so.5: version `Qt_5.14' not found (required by kde-open5) show up in the bash. xdg-open also does not fire up zoom

@iTanguy I wrote a mail to the zoom support team about this. Thanks for the heads-up.

License file is missing from the Arch package; when "custom" is used, the packaging should include a copy of the license.

Note that apparently it's not in the archive I can download from their web site; but I don't know how to report to Zoom directly.

I'm still having trouble as of latest build running zoom under gnome-wayland. Not sure if this is a qt bug or a zoom bug, but on launch I get: 

ZoomLauncher started.
Zoom not exist at current directory - /home/matt
Zoom path is: /opt/zoom
cmd line: 
CreateReportChannel bp_server_fd=4
$HOME = /home/matt 
export SSB_HOME=/home/matt/.zoom; export QSG_INFO=1; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/zoom; export BREAKPAD_CLIENT_FD=3; /opt/zoom/zoom "" 
zoom started.
Client: Breakpad is using Client-Server Mode! client fd = 3
This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "wayland"
in "".

Available platform plugins are: eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
ZoomLauncher: new dump generated from pid 141263, path: /home/matt/.zoom/logs/bd17c6b4-726c-4021-c7abcca6-44a03ed3.dmp

sh: line 1: 141263 Aborted                 (core dumped) /opt/zoom/zoom ""
success to create child process,status is 34304.
zoom exited normally.
Something went wrong while running zoom,exit code is 134.
ZoomLauncher exit.

prepending QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland doesn't change the output, even though qt5-wayland is installed.

Thanks for any hints!

@ambantis Sounds like a bug in zoom. Can you report this upstream?

ambantis commented on 2020-02-04 04:21 (UTC)

Got this warning when creating a local copy of the desktop file:

λ ~/ desktop-file-install --dir=/home/ambantis/.local/share/applications /usr/share/applications/Zoom.desktop
/home/ambantis/.local/share/applications/Zoom.desktop: error: (will be fatal in the future): value "Zoom.png" for key "Icon" in group "Desktop Entry" is an icon name with an extension, but there should be no extension as described in the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path

Removing the extension in my local copy, it launches fine.

@diogobaeder I'm having the same issue (no support for wayland, qt doesn't launch), did you find a fix?
