[Bug] "Permission Denied" error ran from Ubuntu 18.04.5

[Andrew-J-Larson]

Been using the same commands that would mount just fine, but now getting a permission error.
Always have been running the mount commands with sudo/as root.

Traceback (most recent call last):
	5: from /usr/bin/dislocker-find:140:in `<main>'
	4: from /usr/bin/dislocker-find:140:in `each'
	3: from /usr/bin/dislocker-find:142:in `block in <main>'
	2: from /usr/bin/dislocker-find:88:in `is_bitlocker_encrypted?'
	1: from /usr/bin/dislocker-find:88:in `open'
/usr/bin/dislocker-find:88:in `initialize': Permission denied @ rb_sysopen - /dev/loop0 (Errno::EACCES)

Note, this is when trying to mount the drive with the correct Bitlocker key.

It was ran on a Windows 10 1909 machine, and it appears it is likely related to the issue that has been fixed in the following PR: #252

It looks like a RUBY bug. This should solve the problem:

edit/create ~/.irbrc

require 'irb/ext/save-history'
IRB.conf[:SAVE_HISTORY] = 10000
IRB.conf[:HISTORY_FILE] = "#{ENV['HOME']}/.irb-history"

And execute the dislocker command after running: sudo su

I'm no longer using dislocker for my projects, but you should probably @ someone that builds the ruby packages for ubuntu and other linux distributions.
