Fixes #53

DaVinci Resolve will try to create additional directories in its installation directory, which is read-only because it is running on Flatpak. Those needs to be created when building the Flatpak.

Hit the same problem today. I assume manually creating them for now will work? Maybe that could be added to the install instructions for the time-being.

In case anyone else comes across this issue:

  1. Navigate to ~/.local/share/flatpak/app/com.blackmagic.Resolve/current/active/files/
  2. Create the directories Extras and Apple Immersive
  3. Within the newly created Apple Immersive directory, create a sub directory called Calibration

Alternatively, just run this (does the same thing):

cd ~/.local/share/flatpak/app/com.blackmagic.Resolve/current/active/files/ && mkdir Apple\ Immersive && mkdir Extras && cd Apple\ Immersive && mkdir Calibration
