I can't install the latest linux client (5.16.6.382) on Ubuntu 23.04. The install seems to work until ending with this error:
N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/jima/ptmp/downloads/zoom_amd64.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)
I tried installing using "sudo dpkg -i zoom_amd64.deb' and it seemed to succeed but the zoom client silently exits (with zero status) immediately without displaying anything.
Does anyone know what to do?
$ sudo apt install /home/jima/ptmp/downloads/zoom_amd64.deb
