Interesting.  I wonder if the version in the PPA is not really the same as
the 2.54 download.  For example, I wonder if the PPA is using a slightly
newer (or older) build that is reporting it's version as 2.54.  Oh well,
hopefully Blender will release their official version soon, and then I'll
make one final update to OpenShot to fix any incompatible Blender scripts.

Status in OpenShot Video Editor: New

Bug description:
Ubuntu UE 2.7 (ubuntu 10.04) and Ubuntu netbook remix (10.04)

DEB & PPA

OpenShot 1.2.2

After i updated my version of blender with the PPA to 2.54 OpenShot Wouldn't recognize that i had blender installed,

I got round this problem by manually downloading the blender 2.54 archive - uncompressing it to my home folder - and pointing OpenShot to the executable in that folder.

I wouldn't normally point to this as a bug, but it randomly happened on 2 of my 3 machines o.O
