Title:
  Openshot crashes on start (MLT error)

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  New

Bug description:
  Openshot fails to start with my Arch 64 bit install (Linux 4.0.4-2)
  with minimal system level customization. Openshot and its dependencies
  were installed from the official repositories. Openshot version is
  1.4.3, MLT version is 0.9.6-7, FFmpeg version is 1:2.6.3-2 (all
  versions are in accordance with the official repositories and without
  modification).

  Terminal outputs the following error message:

  ------------------------- ERROR 1 ------------------------------
  Failed to import 'from openshot import main'
  Error Message: cannot import name main
  ----------------------------------------------------------------
  --------------------------------
     OpenShot (version 1.4.3)

    (libQt5Xml.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

  Jouralctl outputs the following:

  May 28 22:34:04 sys systemd-coredump[5192]: Process 5184 (openshot) of user 1000
  -- Subject: Process 5184 (openshot) dumped core
  -- Defined-By: systemd
  -- Support: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
  -- Documentation: man:core(5)
  -- 
  -- Process 5184 (openshot) crashed and dumped core.
  -- 
  -- This usually indicates a programming error in the crashing program and
  -- should be reported to its vendor as a bug.

  The same thing has happened on another Arch clean install. I already
  tried 1) reinstalling openshot, mlt and ffmpeg, 2) deleting
  ~/.openshot and running the program to no avail. The files described
  in the log exist in the reported location. I also tried to run the
  debug.py script, but it didn't seem to play nice with Arch.
