getting exception Your FFProbe version is too old and does not support `-help` option












0















I installed ffmpeg by doing sudo apt-get install ffmpeg



From a terminal, when I run /usr/bin/ffprobe -help it runs properly, but it is not running from my package. Instead I get the exception in the title: Your FFProbe version is too old and soes not support '-help'



I am using laravel and i have installed this package https://github.com/PHP-FFMpeg/PHP-FFMpeg



Where am i going wrong?
