May I ask, why use md5sums for "validation" and strip staticlibs?

Can you upgrade to latest version 0.23.6? (edit I changed PKGBUILD and upgraded to 0.23.6)

Now it works again. For me, freetube needs setuid bit set. This is not done by the package. After the last update, I had to re-set setuid (chmod 4775). The mistake: I set the setuid bit for freetube instead of chrome-sandbox. This lead to the `error while loading shared libraries´ error message.

@kmile You shouldn't bee needing any kind of hacks unless you are using an unofficial repository or have done a partial update, both of which are unsupported.

currently broken and has been for a little time, raises error[BAD_HTTP_STATUS: 403] Potential causes: IP block or streaming URL deciphering failed

issue stemmed from upstream library, fix has been merged and tested, a hotfix release is on its way.
