This should work now, with the latest version from the PPA.

Status in OpenShot Video Editor: New

Bug description:
Ubuntu 9.10
I've installed the Openshot Editor from the PPA, along with all dependencies (incuding mlt-python).

When I try to start in, it gives the following error

$ openshot
Added /usr/share/openshot to system path
--------------------------------
   OpenShot (version 0.9.54)
--------------------------------
*** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import ***
*** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import ***
Exception in thread Thread-1:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.6/threading.py", line 525, in __bootstrap_inner
    self.run()
  File "/usr/share/openshot/classes/thumbnail.py", line 174, in run
    mlt.Factory().init()
NameError: global name 'mlt' is not defined

-------------------------------------------------------
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


However, the editor successfully started, when I run interactive python prompt and added /usr/share/mlt-python
to the system path (sys.path.append ("/usr/share/mlt-python"))

Looks like the mlt-python package doesn't comply with the Ubuntu regulations about paths for the python bindings.
