Zoom Workplace für Linux missing dependencies since v7.0.0
Technical situation:
- Debian 12 (Bookworm)
- Zoom Workplace via https://zoom.us/client/latest/zoom_amd64.deb
Description / Issue / Solution:
I noticed an undocumented system requirement (`libopengl0`), which lead to an nonfunctional zoom workplace client.
The Zoom Workplace für Linux (https://zoom.us/client/latest/zoom_amd64.deb) needs since v7.0.0 the Debian package libopengl0 (https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/libopengl0 ), because the Zoom logs (`~/.zoom/logs/`) says something like “missing libOpenGL.so.0 ...”. After installing this package `apt install libopengl0` the Zoom Workplace works as before.
This required packages is not listen in https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0063458 .
The best way would be to specify this dependency within the Debian packages itself (Section: “Depends:”). Current package situation:
