N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file

[joshschmelzle]

Jerry ran into this error when installing profiler on vanilla bookworm. Based on the thread in Slack, this did not prevent profiler from working.

Snip:

N: Download is performed unsandboxed as root as file '/home/jerry/wlanpi-profiler_1.0.18_arm64.deb' couldn't be accessed by user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)

Longer debug output:

For installation, I had him install with these instructions:

wget --content-disposition "https://packagecloud.io/wlanpi/dev/packages/debian/bookworm/wlanpi-profiler_1.0.18_arm64.deb/download.deb?distro_version_id=215"
sudo apt install ./wlanpi-profiler_1.0.18_arm64.deb
