[Bug 1074035] Re: openshot crashes on startup with "cannot import name main"

 

I have similar issue on when starting Openshot on terminal in Ubuntu
16.04.4.

In addition, there is also a mlt_repository_init failure.

However, Openshot does start up and can be used. Also, Openshot can be started from Ubuntu 16.04 GUI Icon.
 
Error:

$ openshot
Added /usr/share/openshot to system path

------------------------- ERROR 1 ------------------------------
Failed to import 'from openshot import main'
Error Message: cannot import name main
----------------------------------------------------------------
