I use the Flatpak for Zoom. It works fine, and since there's no .deb
repo, with the Flatpak I get updates. Since I very seldomly use Zoom,
it was always out of date when I did start it, so I'm happy to have the
Flatpak.

I would suggest trying a different browser: Vivaldi.
It's a "fork" of chromium, with some interesting features.
I.e. it solved my troubles with teams in mint 17.3; maybe not a solution,
just a practical patch...

Last time (that time bullseye still on testing release) I tried with 
they official deb, I getting dependencies issues too.. trying with 
"apt-get -f install" solve the installation but somehow when I using it, 
it hang...and sometimes I can't close my camera properly.


Then I switched to snap version. It work fine until now so I just gonna 
stick using snap version but honestly, I don't recommend you to use snap 
package because of it disturbing for someone who really care about 
bandwidth, permission to run and storage size. It will be the last 
options for me..


Maybe you want to read my snap configuration adjustment[1]

I wouldn't dream of disputing Greg Wooledge's advice. 'dpkg -i...' is
not a bad way to go but should *always* be folled by 'apt -f install'.
It leads to the same outcome.

That's an avenue of support. Here isn't. We haven't any control over
the Zoom package.

I've never done that. The flatpack version worked for me.

If that's true, then you could simply use "apt install ./zoom*.deb" in
the first place.  It's undocumented, but it has been a thing for several
years now.

Works for me (Deb11 + Cinnamon).  IIRC, after running dpkg -i zoom.deb
you need to run "apt-get -f install" to fix the dependencies.

Can you share the log? Or run apt -f install?

There's not much we can do about that.  If you really want the standalone
application, contact Zoom.

I'd suggest simply running the in-browser version whenever you
need to attend a Zoom meeting.  It should work in either Firefox or
Chrome/Chromium.
