Hi all, A couple of weeks ago I had a problem compiling mlt 0.22 (and so had others) and I had to use the mediafire.com .debs for (K)Ubuntu. When compiling mlt yourself, the problem already starts with the "./configure --enable-gpl --enable-shared --enable-theora --enable-vorbis --enable-libogg --enable-pp --enable-shared-pp --enable-motion-est" . This configure step already gives error messages as some build_config and build_pkgconfig functions are not executed. This causes the make step to end in error(s) and mlt is not compiled/linked/built.
I then saw that the top line in ./configure consisted of "#!/bin/sh". I changed this to "#!/bin/bash" as that's the default for most modern linuxes and it has more capabilities. This was the great trick. The configure scripts runs without errors and the "make" and "sudo make install" commands function properly too. The same can be accomplished by "bash ./configure --enable-gpl --enable-shared --enable-theora --enable-vorbis --enable-libogg --enable-pp --enable-shared-pp --enable-motion-est". JB: Can you please add this to the instructions on the "http://kdenlive.sourceforge.net/downloads.php"; page for the mlt configure/compilation instructions as I think it will solve a lot of mlt compilation problems for other new users too, attracting more people to start using kdenlive.
