Hi, we'll take a look at this. Thanks for reporting.

It does not use an absolute path to be compatible with all distros out there, unfortunately not every debian-based distro puts ldconfig in /usr/sbin, and the fact that Debian 12 does not put /usr/sbin in PATH is simply beyond me (it's so ridiculous even that there's probably something else going on, you can't not put /usr/sbin in PATH). In any case I will have to make an exception to look in PATH first, then fallback to /usr/sbin/ldconfig.

Cool....man could also include a "whereis" instead of the exception.... so the distro does not matter

Thanks man, that helped me! I'm using MX Linux 23.2 based on Debian 12.5 and after editing, I can finally use the Emby Theater application
