Kdenlive on Arch Linux segfaults

[qubodup]

Thank you for these scripts!

I seem to be able to compile on Arch Linux but it segfaults when I try to run the start-kdenlive script. I added gdb to it:

Starting program: /home/qubodup/kdenlive/20160102/bin/kdenlive

I do have oxygen installed though:
oxygen 5.5.2-1
oxygen-cursors 5.5.2-1
oxygen-icons 1:5.17.0-1
oxygen-kde4 5.5.2-1
ttf-oxygen 1:5.4.3-1

I can run kdenlive-git when I compile it on my own just using -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX= though.

Note: I downloaded and ran the build script from ~/kl/ rather than ~/kdenlive/ - it still created the latter. This is probably unrelated.

Are you building master? It would be best to start with the KDENLIVE developers. I see they just fixed a start up crash today:
https://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kdenlive.git&a=commit&h=d9fa09cce2db14e5750982340273feb5cde52966

Also, I see you are running with KDE4. I'm pretty sure that master no longer works with KDE4 - but I could be wrong.

Closing because this issue is stale.
