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.

If you're still having seg fault issues, this fixed it for me: touch ~/.config/zoomus.conf.

@prosoitos I had the exact same problem with the same error message yesterday. After using git to checkout the previous version (the one from Feb 8) and reinstalling, zoom launches and seems to work fine (though I didn't make any calls yet). So I'm using the Feb 8 version now.

In addition to the error posted by prosoitos, using journalctl I can see the following records related to the zoom segfault:

I could install without any problem, but zoom does not launch. I get this error:

ZoomLauncher started.
Zoom not exist at current directory - /home/marie
Zoom path is: /opt/zoom
cmd line: 
$HOME = /home/marie

@lujipeka Surely this is not an ideal solution and is due to the odd nature of the PKGBUILD but in the end the error boils down to a poor AUR package manager decision. The only recommendation I can give you is to either use a proper helper or build it from source.

I have this error when trying to install zoom on my computer loading packages... error: 'zoom-2.0.115900.1201_orig_x86_64.pkg.tar.xz': duplicate target

Probably not related to packaging, but I'm getting quite frequent hangs. Every 20 minutes or so performance gets quickly terrible to the point that the application is completely unresponsive. If I don't kill it fast enough sometimes it even brought down my entire system. I'm wondering if anyone else has been experiencing this and whether there is any workaround.

@daurnimator Thanks, updated!

@paulodiovani It looks like qt5-webkit has been superseded by qt5-webengine and I removed the dependency for now. Please let me know whether this assessment is accurate and SSO login is still working for you.

daurnimator commented on 2018-02-08 00:37 (UTC)

Missing dependency on libxss

edh commented on 2018-01-30 18:44 (UTC)

@paulodiovani Thanks for the hint. I merely copied the dependency field from the official package and did not check for any additional ones.

paulodiovani commented on 2018-01-30 15:49 (UTC)

Zoom depends on qt5-webkit to display webpages (e.g. SSO Login)
