    This is the zoom we need, and it is maintained by Bruno Cornec. Must
    give it a try.

    This is the zoom we need,

    Only if you meed/want to create/attend a zoom meeting.

    and it is maintained by Bruno Cornec.

    Pretty sure it is not since I gave an non-Mageia url for download.

    Must give it a try.

    creating your zoom account at https://zoom.us then test with
    firefox http://zoom.us/test

    I can recommend that you create a script or two to do the install/updates.

    I used the 'script' command to get a list of what was installed.
    man script

    then created my install_zoom script. It installs the following rpms
    x_urpmi lib64xcb-xtest0
    x_urpmi gnu-free-fonts-common
    x_urpmi gnu-free-fonts-compat
    x_urpmi ibus-gtk
    x_urpmi ibus-gtk3
    x_urpmi ibus-m17n
    x_urpmi librsvg
    x_urpmi m17n-db
    x_urpmi m17n-lib
    then installs the gpg and zoom rpms.

    x_urpmi is my urpmi wrapper which skips the rpm install if rpm is
    already installed.
