I just wanted to thank you for finding this and everyone else who contributed to this thread.

I was on the brink of extracting hair from my skull before I found this. Thankfully my scalp reamins warm and that's all thanks to this thread 🙂

Same problem exists in Ubuntu 17.04 (I'm using Kubuntu). Thankfully, olejon's answer worked like a charm! Thank you!

It says /user/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libavutil.so.52: No such file or directory. What do I do?
