Summary | 0003086: Regression of bug 46 | ||||
Description | Apparently https://bugs.kali.org/view.php?id=46 has returned. VLC cannot be run as root, which impedes it's usability for forensic purposes. The VLC devs, after much pleading, appear to have added an --allow-run-as-root option in the build stage, but Kali doesn't enable it (anymore?). | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | root@kali:~# vlc | ||||
Additional Information | |||||
Due to the age of the OS (Kali Moto [v1], Kali Safi [v2], Kali Rolling 2016.x), these legacy versions are no longer supported. Please could you see if you are able to replicate this issue with the latest version of Kali Linux - https://www.kali.org/downloads/)? If you are still facing the same problem, feel free to re-open the ticket. If you choose to do this, could you provide more information to the issue you are facing,and also give information about your setup? |
