pftm@pftm-PC:~/obs-vkcapture/build$ make

OBS v27.2.4 from Flathub

You can't build it against flatpak installation. It has to be installd system-wide. But also, if you use OBS from flatpak you will need to use obs-vkcapture from flatpak too. And in that case, you only need to build the capture tools: cmake -DBUILD_PLUGIN=OFF

For ubuntu the libdir would be lib/x86_64-linux-gnu: cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib/x86_64-linux-gnu. Or just manually move the installed plugin from /usr/lib/obs-plugins to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/obs-plugins.
