Installation of Kdenlive

Install Kdenlive by running the following commands: 

mkdir build &&
cd    build &&

cmake -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$KF6_PREFIX \
      -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release         \
      -D BUILD_TESTING=OFF                \
      -D FETCH_OTIO=ON                    \
      -W no-dev .. &&
make
[Note]

Note

The build process will download a Git repository of OpenTimelineIO, totaling around 100 MB. Configuration will seem to hang right after cmake begins running. This is normal, it is fetching that Git repository. If it hangs for a while, it's most likely due to a poor download speed during the download process.

This package does not come with a test suite.

Now, as the root user: 

make install
