[Bug 441678] Re: [needs-packaging] OpenShot Video Editor

 

Hi,

You should perhaps upload this package to REVU, to make that review
easier and to not bug the people subscribed to this bug report.

Anyway, here is what I've found:
- debian/copyright: file openshot/windows/SimpleGladeApp.py seems to be LGPL. It should be reflected.

I manually built and installed python-mlt2 from Debian:
apt-cache policy python-mlt2
python-mlt2:
  Installed: 0.4.10-5
  Candidate: 0.4.10-5
  Version table:
 *** 0.4.10-5 0
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

but openshot fails to run, even with -5 version:
openshotAdded /usr/share/openshot to system path
--------------------------------
   OpenShot (version 1.0.0)
--------------------------------
*** 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 527, in __bootstrap_inner
    self.run()
  File "/usr/share/openshot/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)

It seems python-mlt2 only contains python2.5 stuff.

So I can't ack it for the moment.
