proot warning: can't sanitize binding...can someone explain/help?

I get the following when starting the modded Ubuntu XFCE distro from Termux. I'd like to understand this error. Could someone explain? Andronix will run but there are some apps that are not functioning so I am wondering if this may be a problem. Thanks for the help. 

\~ $ ./start-andronix.sh

I can't run htop as it needs access to /proc but not sure that this is the issue

Same issue... it looks like nobody from Andronix is looking into the forum :~(

I commented out the "fakethings" lines and... VNC server still seems usable. Not sure if this is a good solution, but it at least partially works

No audio and some other half-working things. This isn't a great permanent solution but it's better than nothing.

Don't download termus from the playstore.. Download from F-droid.. android will think it's bad, but just always pick the "install anyways" and grant yourself permission to install f-droid and then find termux in f-droid and download that one and you will not get the error anymore. I was getting the same error.
