[Bug 487237] Re: OpenShot has broken dependencies and will not run via experimental PPA and Karmic/9.10

 

Looking at your log, the error:

Error:  OpenShot has not been installed in the Python path.
(Both the site-packages and /usr/share/openshot folders were checked)

can happen if the python path has not been set on your system. In the
terminal type:

echo $PYTHONPATH

If the result is an empty string, then you need to define the python
path, e.g.

export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/

You will then probably need to copy the files _mlt.so, mlt.py &
mlt_wrap.o from  ~/src/mlt/src/swig/python to /usr/lib/python2.6/site-
packages.

Hopefully you will then be able to start Openshot.
