Zoom wouldn't start from chrome. The launcher would start, then when you click to sign in zoom itself would simply not start, no error message.
Update short answer: Don't forget to put kde and plasma in your global use flags if you use kde-plasma.
When you click the button,
The following would appear in ~/.zoom/logs/zoom_stdout_stderr.log
Code: |
QProcess: Destroyed while process ("./zopen") is still running.
/usr/bin/xdg-open: line 786: kde-open: command not found

Well lookee there:
Code: |
jesnow@bartali ~ $ kde-open
bash: kde-open: command not found
jesnow@bartali ~ $ locate kde-open
jesnow@bartali ~ $ locate open | grep kde
jesnow@bartali ~ $
|
No wonder at all, kde-open doesn't exist. Where is it?
(check in another machine).
Code: |
jesnow@vanaert ~ $ equery belongs /usr/bin/kde-open
* Searching for /usr/bin/kde-open ...
kde-plasma/kde-cli-tools-6.2.4 (/usr/bin/kde-open)
jesnow@vanaert ~ $ equery depends kde-cli-tools
* These packages depend on kde-cli-tools:
app-office/libreoffice-24.2.7.2 (kde-plasma/kde-cli-tools)
kde-plasma/plasma-meta-6.2.4 (>=kde-plasma/kde-cli-tools-6.2.4:6)
sys-apps/keyexec-0.1.5 (kde ? kde-plasma/kde-cli-tools:6)
(kde ? kde-plasma/kde-cli-tools:6)
x11-misc/xdg-utils-1.2.1-r8 (plasma ? kde-plasma/kde-cli-tools)
|
So "emerge kde-cli-tools" (normally installed by plasma-meta)
and all is well. It was a hidden consequence of installing plasma by hand.
But now:
Code: |
QProcess: Destroyed while process ("./zopen") is still running.
kf.kio.gui: Failed to determine systemd version, falling back to extremely legacy forking mode.
Opening in existing browser session.

I don't know if that's something to worry about, zoom started now, so I'm good.
Looks like kde frameworks expects to use systemd.
Cheers,
Jon. |
