Error sandboxing

[dquinton]

I'm stuck trying to run the latest release. I run with the command
./lossless-cut

and get this error
[23567:0224/195332.055701:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(157)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /home/dav/Downloads/LosslessCut-linux/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.
Trace/breakpoint trap

If there was a Readme file I might know what to do properly.
what can i do?

Need to research more. I tried in Ubuntu 18 and it works there

try

./lossless-cut --no-sandbox

it's work for me in debian 9 and ubuntu 18 docker

Thanks. I added a readme about this workaround for now. Needs more research

Seems like a common problem with Electron. See electron/electron#17972

Maybe want to look into bundling a script like this:
electron-userland/electron-builder#4278

Same problem with AppImage on Debian 10.7, --no-sandbox works.

Same issue using the snap install in Debian 10, however the --no-sandbox turnaround does not work. I installed the AppImage and --no-sandbox works with that.

Closing because not much actionable for me. I hope that future versions of electron will fix this #714

see also #258
