[Bug 1971094] Re: openshot doesn't start Ubuntu 22.04 fresh install

 

Solution for maintainer:
------------------------


I just ran into the same problem, and found a solution.  Another poster said he compiled from source, and pointed to this location for instructions:

https://github.com/OpenShot/libopenshot/wiki/Linux-Build-Instructions

Well, my build failed (the first build with audio, but I also had to
move to gcc-13 so maybe that's it..), but I installed a LOT of packages
with sudo apt install.  After doing the installs, it worked fine.
There's missing dependencies in the package manager.

This is a completely new setup and here's my installation, this is the
newest LTS Kubuntu, which is just Ubuntu but with KDE as the desktop.

cat /etc/os-release 
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS"
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION_ID="22.04"
VERSION="22.04.3 LTS (Jammy Jellyfish)"
VERSION_CODENAME=jammy
ID=ubuntu
ID_LIKE=debian
HOME_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/";
SUPPORT_URL="https://help.ubuntu.com/";
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/";
PRIVACY_POLICY_URL="https://www.ubuntu.com/legal/terms-and-policies/privacy-policy";
UBUNTU_CODENAME=jammy

Cheers.
