ARM Microsoft Teams-problems installing - eaglebeckley - 02-01-2021
I'd like to get the linux ARM version of Microsoft teams installed on my Mobian Pinephone. I downloaded the file teams-for-linux_1.0.6_arm64.deb from https://github.com/IsmaelMartinez/teams-for-linux/releases and using Kings Cross I tried running
sudo dpkg -i teams-for-linux_1.0.6_arm64.deb
After unpacking the file, it outputted:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of teams-for-linux: teams-for-linux depends on libappindicator3-1; however: Package libappindicator3-1 is not installed.
dpkg: error processing package teams-for-linux (--install): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Processing triggers for hicolor-icon-theme (0.17-2) ...
Processing triggers for mailcap (3.68) ...
Processing triggers for desktop-file-utils (0.26-1) ...
Errors were encountered while processing: teams-for-linux
I thought I'd be able to fix this by next running sudo apt install -f but after running this, the output noted:
The following packages will be REMOVED: teams-for-linux
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 37 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 161 MB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]
After confirming I'm back to square one....I have the deb file but teams is not installed.
The questions I have are 1) are the commands I attempted the correct way to try to install this deb file on my Mobian pinephone. 2) is there a way I can get this work work? If so, how?
Feedback, direction is much appreciated as I need teams on my pinephone before I can make it a daily driver. Thanks in advance!

have you tried running sudo apt install libappindicator3-1 and then running sudo dpkg -i teams-for-linux_1.0.6_arm64.deb?

E: Package 'libappindiactor3-1' has no installation candidate
Also, as a plan-B I tried to login to Team using both browsers (firefox ESR and gnome Web) and both of them give me the error that the browser is not compatible with the Teams webapp and that I should download the desktop app!

you can download the package from here: https://packages.debian.org/buster/libappindicator3-1
links to the arch specific versions are at the bottom of the page. arm64 is there

dependency problems prevent configuration of libappindicator3-1:arm64: libappindicator3-1:arm64 depends on libindicator3-7; however Package libindicator3-7 is not installed.
When I get home tonight, perhaps I'll try to see about the libindicator3-7 file (for ARM64). Would prefer if I knew how many files I would need to get this to work instead of going one by one...but maybe that's what I'll have to do.

this should help you what dependencies you'll need: https://sleeplessbeastie.eu/2018/03/05/how-to-display-dependencies-for-deb-package/

in the first place then apt would sort all the dependencies (if it can)?Code:cd /to/directory/where/you/downloaded/the/.deb/
sudo apt install ./teams-for-linux_1.0.6_arm64.deb
Note, selecting 'teams-for-linux' instead of './teams-for-linux_1.0.6_arm64.deb' Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:

Update - I was able to successfully install the arm64 versions of libindicator3-7 first, then libappindicator3-1, and finally teams-for-linux_1.0.6_arm64. I successfully logged into my company's instance of teams. Disappointingly the app was blurry and seemed very slow. I am guessing that is because it is not an official Microsoft version but I appreciate the efforts of the developer who created it. I hope Microsoft creates an ARM64 version of teams for linux that could be easily installed on a PBP or pinephone. For now, I'll mark this as complete and appreciate the advice & support I received in this post.

AFAIK, this being an Electron app, and knowing the performance of the teams app on my much stronger Windows Laptop I expect Teams to NEVER perform well on the Pinephone. It is simply not powerful enough to run that hog.
