MLT's SDL module not found

Hi!
I am using Fedora 15.
Kdenlive was installed, but when it starts, I got this message: mlt's sdl module not found, and the program doesn't open.
How can I fix this?

Re: MLT's SDL module not found

Hello!

After many hours spent compiling kdenlive-0.8, MLT (git, 0-7.4) SDL, other dependencies I gave up.

So I finally asked uncle Google about this issue.

The answer is in the post: http://kdenlive.org/forum/cant-start-kdnlive-sdl-module-missing-mlt

The quick one is patching kdenlive source to correctly recognize SDL.

http://kdenlive.org/sites/default/files/kdenlive-newmlt.patch

This is kdenlive bug, that should be described on it's home page instead of your post.

If you do not compile, there are other solutions mentioned in above post.

After applying that patch, compile and reinstall, kdenlive-0.8 works without errors.

My system:

Slackware64-13.37 upgraded with multilib-32compatibility + KDE-4.7.2 (both from Eric Hameleers)
Digikam-2.2.0, kernel-3.0.4 and finally kdenlive-0.8.

Have a nice day.
