[Jonathan Thomas <Jonathan.Oomph@xxxxxxxxx>]

The build wizard only works for Debian systems.  Perhaps we should rename it
the build wizard to "Debian Build Wizard".  OpenShot needs the MLT
framework, and the Swig Python bindings for the MLT framework.  Once you
figure out how to get those working in Slackware, OpenShot is just a pure
Python program, and can be installed with "sudo python setup.py install".
You can get the source for OpenShot on the download
page<http://www.openshotvideo.com/2008/04/download.html>.
Good luck!
