Re: [Bug 482985] Re: openshot won't open in Ubuntu 9.10

 

Hi,
interestingly I found similar results.
After some remarks from other users, whohad no problems - Idid a brand new
Karmic installation and Openshot on a seperate system - and.... it ran!

So I finalize, the package process and the dependencies are not "purely"
correct, Ithink.
Neverthelessnice prog.
