What steps will reproduce the bug?(重新问题的详细步骤)

And while trying to start electerm got an error

[240397:0116/151231.838215:FATAL:setuid_sandbox_host.cc(158)] The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /opt/electerm/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755.
Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

Would this happen in other terminal app(是否能够在其他同类软件重现这个问题)

sudo chmod 4755 /opt/electerm/chrome-sandbox
