Oups... Again, same thing here.

*** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import ***

Not sure, why this has worked previous time in the bug #501310.

I've run the interactive python prompt and tried importing mlt:

$ python
Python 2.6.4 (r264:75706, Dec  7 2009, 18:45:15)
[GCC 4.4.1] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import mlt
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/mlt/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
    from mlt import *
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/mlt/mlt.py", line 7, in <module>
    import _mlt
ImportError: libmlt++.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
>>>

$ locate libmlt++.so
/usr/lib/libmlt++.so.0.4.10
/usr/lib/libmlt++.so.3
$ locate libmlt++.so.2
$ 

Looks like mlt python bindings are bound to the old version of the mlt.
