Introduction

We all know that what discord is and what it does. Okay, if you don’t know what it is, just skip this post.

This post is only for those who have showing issue in their grey box.

Platform: Linux Arch-like

If other distros have the same issue, you may try this. Don’t know whether it works for you.

Issue

If you update your discord to Linux-v0.0.2, you should encounter this issue that nothing shows in the grey box of Discord below.

Okay, this is easy.

Solution

Execute the following to import keys using gpg:

Why need libc++

As you can see in libc++ in AUR, libc++ is required by discord.

Anyway, it should do the tricks.
