Even if you have superuser priviliges, you should build (and execute)
as a regular user. Only for installation should you ever use those
priviliges. (And you don't even need to "install", normally.)

Yes. You should get the latest git master source of ffmpeg, not a
release or something too old. As far as I can tell, this issue was
fixed in the last few days/weeks.

If you can't check out the source from git, grab the snapshot
("Download Snapshot" link) from https://ffmpeg.org/download.html .
