Hello,

I'm running lipsync on archlinux and I had some errors in the installation process. One is with all the chown $username:$username. I don't know if there is a group with the same name as the username in ubuntu and debian but not in archlinux. Is there a reason to do it that way ?

I fixed it using group=$(id -g $username) and chown $username:$group everywhere.
