Hi, when I install the plugin on my hoobs pro I get this error

Broadlink Rm-pro Bridgewarnunhandled rejection: Error: ping.probe: there was an error while executing the ping program. . Check the path or permissions... Error: ping.probe: there was an error while executing the ping program. . Check the path or permissions... at ChildProcess.<anonymous> (/var/lib/hoobs/broadlinkrm-probridge/node_modules/ping/lib/ping-promise.js:54:23) at Object.onceWrapper (node:events:629:26) at ChildProcess.emit (node:events:514:28) at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:289:12) at onErrorNT (node:internal/child_process:476:16) at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:82:21)

I tried this fix: https://github.com/kiwi-cam/homebridge-broadlink-rm/issues/557 But I get this errors:

E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/1ib/dpkg/lock frontend), are you root?

has anyone a clue what might be the problem here? Thanks in advance, JC
