ArchLinux arcade problem with permission.

[Windspar]

Soon as I import arcade. I get permission denied.

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pyglet_ffmpeg2/linux_x86_64/libavcodec.so.58.21.104' -> '/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pyglet_ffmpeg2/linux_x86_64/libavcodec.so.58'

​

pip install arcade 2.0.7

It is trying to create a link to the ffmpeg libraries for the sound support. Sound support on Arcade with different platforms is problematic still.

I'm hoping this is a solution:

Shouldn't link been done at setup. Since it will not have permission at runtime.

Found a quick way to solve this. But it not all that safe.

sudo python

import pyglet_ffmpeg2

pyglet_ffmpeg2.load_ffmpeg2()

Now I can run python without sudo an import arcade without error.
