Issue Loading Microsoft Teams on Ubuntu 18.04
Hi -
Try to install from the repository instead of the debian downloads. I've found that the debian downloads are mostly garbage and not being maintained the way that one would hope from a large software developer.
The repository should have teams available. I had it working fine until today in Bodhi (built on Ubuntu 18.04). Unfortunately today I started having other issues and now can no longer use it. I have complained numerous times on Microsoft community entries that it's clear that Teams is being underdeveloped in Linux and likely should still be called pre-stable release as there are various issues that I've faced using it.
If your only need is to edit xlsx files, why not just use LibreOffice? For most things, it gets the job done cleanly and you can save back to xlsx to share with collaborators still using MS Office.
What the link for the repo? I've only found unofficial linux versions on Github.
I may just go for the download and edit in LibreOffice option after all
Thanks again!
