I just saw that new packages for ubuntu 20.04 are now available in the handbrake PPA. however I am having trouble installing them. It appears that "handbrake" and "handbrake-cli" are now mutually exclusive - i.e. if you have handbrake installed and try to install handbrake-cli, it will REMOVE handbrake first, and vice versa.
I have always had both handbrake and handbrake-cli installed on all of my machines. There are times when I want to do things in a gui, and other times when I just want to automate/batch encode things with a bash script. I don't see why handbrake and handbrake-cli should conflict with each other, afaik they are completely separate executables, and I've never had trouble with having both packages installed on the same machine before.
Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
Code: Select all
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-releases
...blahblahblah normal apt output...
$ sudo apt update
...blahblahblah normal apt output...
$ sudo apt install handbrake
...blahblahblah normal apt output, handbrake package successfully installs...
$ sudo apt install handbrake-cli

I would try and contact the PPA maintainer (John Stebbins) however there is no contact information listed for him on Ubuntu Launchpad.
