Open shot won't start/Python errors
« on: January 28, 2010, 04:51:17 AM »
When launching Openshot from CLI I get the following errors:
Code: [Select]
*** ERROR: MLT Python bindings failed to import ***
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./openshot.py", line 65, in <module>
    main()
  File "./openshot.py", line 52, in main
    from classes import project
  File "/home/rick/bin/openshot/openshot/classes/project.py", line 22, in <module>
  File "/home/rick/bin/openshot/openshot/classes/files.py", line 19, in <module>
  File "/home/rick/bin/openshot/openshot/classes/messagebox.py", line 20, in <module>
ImportError: No module named xdg.IconTheme

After doing some research, I found part of the problem was the python path not properly set.

when I try "echo $PYTHONPATH" I get "/usr/lib/ooo-3.0/basis-link/program"

Can anyone tell me how to properly set the PYTHONPATH?

Thanks.
