Posix error/permission... and how to install non-snap

#1 Post by scarbrtj » Thu Sep 12, 2024 2:02 am

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 24. My old MakeMKV install didn't work so I uninstalled. I have install MakeMKV as a snap.

Now I cannot write to mnt/MakeMKV without a Posix permission error. I cannot access any remote share directory to write the mkv's (can read and make a folder in the directory just fine from MakeMKV)

In hopes of avoiding sandboxing and snaps,
I also cannot install mkemkv oss (./configure; make; make install) without the error...

...
checking for qt5... yes
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating libffabi/src/ffabicfg.h
config.status: libffabi/src/ffabicfg.h is unchanged
config.status: executing libtool commands
Makefile:2: mmccextr/mmccextr.mak: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target 'mmccextr/mmccextr.mak'. Stop.
Makefile:2: mmccextr/mmccextr.mak: No such file or directory

Ultimately it appears I was able to achieve an installed MakeMKV that could access remote shares via:

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:heyarje/makemkv-beta && sudo apt-get update
