Webex .deb not working on Linux Mint (Debian Edition)

Hi all,

 

I just heard the great news that Linux-version of the Webex client is out and wanted to give it a try.

The .deb package installs fine (using gdebi), but when running the application it terminates after a short while, without showing any GUI nor any logging.

Are more people experiencing this?

I'm running Linux Mint Debian Edition (a.k.a. LMDE 4 Debbie, Cinnamon version 4.8.6, kernel version 4.19.0-16-amd64). More info on this flavor of Linux, here: https://linuxmint.com/download_lmde.php

The command registered in the menu is:

/opt/Webex/bin/CiscoCollabHost %U

While the Webex.deb ships a load of libraries, the specific 'CiscoCollabHost' command doesn't seem to require them, according to 'ldd':

ldd CiscoCollabHost
linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffed4ec9000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f0cee76f000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f0cee74e000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f0cee58d000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f0cee999000)

(The two CiscoCollabHostCef* variants do however).

Maybe the problem has to do with any Qt-libraries my system is lacking... (which 'ldd' would strangely not list)?

I pretty much ruled out permission issues, since the binary IS executable, and since changing ownership of the whole directory from 'root' to [user] didn't help either.

Without proper application logging it's hard to tell...
