Hi community, I did take over maintenance for this package, since I need it for work. It's my first package here on the AUR, so please be forgiving for any mistakes.

If there is a problem with the checksums, flag the package out-of-date at the top of the page. I'll update the PKGBUILD as soon as possible.

I was able to get webex to launch again by downgrading libsecret to 0.20.4-1.

I have the same problem. It seems to be a dependency issue:

I tried to debug it further, but unfortunately without any result:

I am not an expert, but removing & reinstalling did the trick and I am working back again

yay libxcrypt-compat and then yay webex-bin

Confirmed similar issue:

conflicting files:

  • libxcrypt-compat: /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.1 already exists in filesystem (owned by glibc)

Checking in Pamac, I see that glibc is at version 2.33-5 .

karamba commented on 2022-02-18 09:17 (UTC)

It appears to be a manjaro related issue:

[manjaro]$ pacman -Ss glibc core/glibc 2.33-5 [installed] GNU C Library

[archlinux]$ pacman -Ss glibc core/glibc 2.35-2 [installed] GNU C Library

We should wait for the new version of glibc 2.35 in the manjaro repository.

karamba commented on 2022-02-18 08:02 (UTC)

I have the same isuse too

libxcrypt-compat: /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.1 exists in filesystem (owned by glibc)

aulavik commented on 2022-02-18 02:21 (UTC)

libxcrypt-compat is not installed, and I am getting the following libxcrypt-compat error when I try to update webex-bin:


libxcrypt-compat: /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.1 exists in filesystem (owned by glibc)

My glibc version is


core/glibc 2.33-5 (9.8 MiB 46.0 MiB) 

Any ideas how to resolve this issue?

Thanks!

lord commented on 2022-02-15 18:04 (UTC)

Thanks for the update! Now works again.

aknarts commented on 2022-02-15 08:41 (UTC)

I have a feeling that after the recent glibc update this package no longer works, not sure if anything can be done to make it work till the upstream .deb gets updated to support it.
