Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Dylan Aïssi (daissi)]

There are many conflicts between the mkvtoolnix packages from official Ubuntu repositories and those provided by upstream dev (~bunkus). Some discussions are required to fix them[1]... In the time between, please always manually remove them before to switch to those from the other source.

Fixed in mkvtoolnix 35.0.0-1
