Getting the Packages

Get the required packages for Ubuntu. Apart from the Zoom package, you need the package libxcb-xtest0[version].deb (contains the shared libraries libxcb-test.so.0 and libxcb-test.so.0.0.0 which are required by the Zoom package).

1. Open https://zoom.us/download?os=linux in a browser and select the following:

   • Linux Type: "Ubuntu"

   • OS Architecture: "64 bit"

   • Version: "16.04+"
     

2. Download the Ubuntu/Debian package zoom_amd64.deb

   Version 5.0.399860.0429 has been tested by IGEL. Newer versions should work, too.

   
   

3. Change to the download directory on your workstation (typically /home/[username]/Downloads).
   

4. Download libxcb-xtest0[version].deb with the following command:
   apt download libxcb-xtest0
