Re: [Bug 439205] Re: OpenShot has not been installed in the Python path

 

You might consider installing from the .DEB files, to see if you can get the
dependencies fixed that way.  Of course, you shouldn't have to mess with
manually creating symbolic links, and such.  The PPA should have setup
everything correctly.  It's possible that you already had MLT installed.
Before trying the .DEB installer, I would purge and remove MLT, and try the
PPA again.  If you get the same error, the .DEB installers might be able to
help.  Good luck!

Status in OpenShot Video Editor: Fix Released

Bug description:
I'm using Ubuntu 9.04.

After installing 0.9.42 from PPA, when I run openshot that is what I get:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Added /usr/share/openshot to system path
--------------------------------
   OpenShot (version 0.9.42)
--------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------
Error:  OpenShot has not been installed in the Python path.
(Both the site-packages and /usr/share/openshot folders were checked)

Use the following command to install OpenShot:
  $ sudo python setup.py install
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I couldn't find 'setup.py' on the openshot package.
I have other PPA respositories in use so maybe there is an issue with them. I can't really be sure about this.
