An incoming update will perform

setcap cap_dac_override,cap_sys_rawio=ep /usr/bin/dvdae
setcap cap_dac_override,cap_sys_rawio=ep /usr/bin/dvdae-gui

in the .install file so the program could be launched as user

2 issues:

1.) the current PKGBUILD seems to miss flac1.4 as an dependency, it only tests for the file libFLAC.so.12

2.) the actual build fails here:

==> Beginne prepare()...
bsdtar: could not chdir to '/tmp/trizen-username/dvdae-bin/pkg/dvdae-bin/'

==> FEHLER: Ein Fehler geschah in prepare().

Hi,

During my system upgrade (with paru -Syu), the changes you made for version 8.7.0-2 were pulled, but the install failed with

==> Starting prepare()...
bsdtar: could not chdir to '~/.cache/paru/clone/dvdae-bin/pkg/dvdae-bin/'

And when I tried it on a machine that did not have flac1.4 installed yet, I first got this error:

:: Resolving dependencies...
error: could not find all required packages:
    libFLAC.so.12 (wanted by: dvdae-bin)

If I manually install flac1.4 first, the dependency is resolved, but then it fails again with the error in prepare()

This can be fixed by reverting to the way the package was built for 8.7.0-1, as in, don't add a prepare() function but call bsdtar in package().

Thanks, I'l correct the depends in a day or 2

Since flac 1.5 entered the main repos dvdae fails to start. I have created a flac1.4 aur package to fix this.

flac1.3 is no longer required and can be removed from your systems

Yes, it most definitely could be a rootkit and if in doubt do not install it. It is a closed source binary so caution is always advised. You may consider emailing them and seeing if they would be willing to release the source or an update: support@dvdae.com That being said when I first used this I was concerned as well and spent a fair amount of time reverse engineering it until I felt it safe enough to install (which is still installed). Also, worth noting. There isn't anything else out there that can do what this program does. I have 100 or so DVD Audio disks from several years ago. Some tools will do some but not most of them. I haven't used this tool in several months but I do remember having a difficult time getting six channels extracted with any other tools for most of the DVD Audio disks. If you are really worried you might consider a using a virtual machine. Especially since DVD Audio Disks are not a common occurrence and you could just do it once all in batch. Also, I wrote some scripts to extract all my DVD Audio disks with this so feel free to shoot me an email if you want them.
