[Bug 1319266] [NEW] Openshot does not start on Ubuntu 14.04
Public bug reported:
I had to upgrade to Ubuntu 14.04 due to other reasons but now openshot
won't start any more. I get the following error message:
--------------------------------
OpenShot (version 1.4.4~alpha1)
--------------------------------
Process no longer exists: 7379. Creating new pid lock file.
*** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import ***
*** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import ***
*** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import ***
Exception in thread Thread-1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/threading.py", line 810, in __bootstrap_inner
self.run()
File "/home/hanke/openshot/openshot/classes/thumbnail.py", line 240, in run

*** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import ***
------------------------- ERROR 1 ------------------------------
Failed to import 'from openshot import main'
Error Message: No module named mlt

Error Message: No module named openshot
----------------------------------------------------------------
OpenShot has failed to import some of the Python files or libraries
required for our application to run. Here are some trouble shooting
tips:
Tip 1) Check if MLT can be successfully imported in Python. Run the
following commands, and see if any errors are displayed. If you get
an error, you need to investigate the correct way to install MLT.
NOTE: Do not type the $ or >> characters in the examples below.
$ python
>> import mlt
>> mlt.Factory().init()
Tip 2) If MLT is working from the first example, then the next tip is
to look at the above error messages very closely, and google for more
help. It's likely the problem is already reported, and maybe there is
a simple work-around. Also, you can search for bugs or report a new
bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/openshot. Good luck!
Using the proposed commands does not work:
$ python
Python 2.7.6 (default, Mar 22 2014, 22:59:56)
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import mlt
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named mlt
MLT 0.8.8 is installed:
$ melt --version
melt 0.8.8
