I am repeatedly getting this error when trying to install Xuggle(http://www.xuggle.com/xuggler/downloads/) to linux server .

-------------------- ERROR ----------------------- Failed to install xuggle-xuggler. You may need to be root to install to /usr/local/xuggler. -------------------- ERROR -----------------------

I am not a root user, but I have sudo rights. Aren't sudo rights sufficient to install xuggle? Thanx in advance.

  • I managed to solve the problem. I am using debian linux. Anyway the problem was due to a corrupted xuggler file. I downloaded it again and tried. then it worked. – Paba Mar 24 '11 at 08:52
