Have you got any idea if it'll be fixed soon?

I wanted to run Skype but i'm getting the below error

"Running as root without --no-sandbox is not supported"

Is it possible to run Skype without root?

clausmuus:
The last experiments with the pulseaudio about two years ago. So it's not probably that anybody that anybody will work on it soon.
To start an app as not root, you can use the user "user". It will be created, when you e.g. install the vlc package. That package contains the script /usr/bin/startvlc that switch the user at startup.

gr4vity:
Oh, i always run vlc as root,
Is it why it looks like that?

Thanks a lot Claus, Skype worked.   :D
It doesn't depend on pulseaudio, i didn't test voice calls yet but the Eco /sound test service works.

gr4vity:
Hi Claus,
This is an off topic question,
I can't repack any package on MLD because of the following error.
tar: unrecognized option '--format=gnu'

Do you know how to fix it?

gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly:amd64 depends on libgcc1 (>= 1:3.0); however:
  Version of libgcc1 on system is 6.3.0-~1.

I have to repack every debian package because of that error which is very irretating.  :-\
Is it a typo and it should be 1:3.0 instead of 6.3.0?

clausmuus:
The tar problem should be, (if you use it on the MLD) that it is the tar of the busybox package. You musst use the full tar tool for that.

The real versions number of the libgcc1 is 1:6.3.0. So you can try to change the versionsnumber on the MLD System in the /var/lib/dpkg/status file. That is the basis for the versions check on install time.
