Unable to run the AppImage, missing libgssapi_krb5
Opened this issue · 7 comments
Hi I just downloaded the version 5.15.3.4839, it seems that I'm unable to run the AppImage. The older version works fine before this, but not this version. No output were written on the terminal too.
Which distribution and version are you on?
What happens if you run ~/Downloads/Zoom-5.15.3.4839.glibc2.17-x86_64.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run --no-sandbox?
If that works, try with just one of the two arguments to see whether you need both or just one of them.
Then please let us know the result here.
Thanks!
I'm using Gentoo. Just found the issue, ran it as root and it says missing some MIT Kerberos libraries (libgssapi_krb5.so.2), issue solved after I installed the package mit-krb5. Is this something new to the latest version of Zoom? The library wasn't in my system and the previous year version of Zoom AppImage ran just fine. Shouldn't the library also be included in the AppImage?
I don't know what Zoom has changed from one release to the next, but it might be possible that they have introduced a new dependency.
You are right, libgssapi_krb5 should be bundled in the AppImage if the application requires it. I am not sure why that doesn't happen.
PLEASE NOTE: In general, you should download AppImages only from the original authors of the software (here: https://zoom.us/), but since they are not yet providing one I am offering this here. Please contact them if you would like to see an official one.
So the issue solved I think?
Not really, as libgssapi_krb5 should be bundled in the AppImage if the application requires it. But apparently it isn't?
I have rebuilt the appimage along with the packages needed if you want it.
