I'm still trying to install Kdenlive 0.7.7...
(Ubuntu 9.10, both KDE 4.4 and GNOME 2.28.1)

I was trying to install Kdenlive using Builder Wizard. But, firstly, I get some errors when installing libraries. Secondly, I can't open extracted .kmdr file. It is simply not recogniseable and when I click on it, the file is opened with text editor. The icon of that file is question mark...

I was trying to install Kdenlive using packages earlier, but I had no luck. If you'd like, I can write more information what I get, when I try to install it using Terminal.

I'd like to know why Kdenlive is exceptional? I've already installed many programs in Linux, even more earlier, when I was using Windows, and Kdenlive is the program, which is the most difficult to install of all... Thanks for help!

And sorry for my English

hi,

I saw your problems on another thread, and the easiest way to install kdenlive 0.7.7 on karmic is using packages. Your major problem is ffmpeg , I explain myself :

you said in the other thread that kdenlive was removed when you installed gimp 2.7, using probably Matt Walker's ppa , BUT you missed on information, this ppa also contains a special version of ffmpeg that quite different (stripped only and breaking API compatibility). You have probably upgraded your system with the whole ppa instead of choosing only gimp 2.7 upgrade.

To solve your problem downgrade all ffmpeg packages to ubuntu official version.
And then install kdenlive.

If you are using KDE 4.4 from a ppa (unsupported in karmic) you must use my 'unstable'ppa (ppa:sunab/sunab2) [currently building] edit : built.

And be careful with ppa mixes : never upgrade blindly a bunch of packages ...
