The instructions for building HandBrake on Linux https://handbrake.fr/docs/en/latest/dev ... linux.html tell me to clone the HandBrake repository from github. If I do this I find that I am unable to compile the application per the instructions provided. I get errors such as libvpx must be >= 1.4 (the latest is 1.3), Error 1, ERROR: opus not found using pkg-config etc.
If I download the tarball for the current version and unpack it on the same machine I can successfully build and install the HandBrake. If the intent of your instruction page is for users of of HandBrake to compile and install the program for use, it would be better to instruct them to download and unpack the tarball and work from there. Cloning from github is fine for those wishing to work with the code.
I simply wanted to install and use HandBrake. This has been a rather frustrating process.
