It’s been some months, and kdenlive is still listed as orphaned. Anyone know how packages become un-orphaned?
Also, if anyone else is having the same problems, this fork worked for me (the missing dependency is glaxnimate.

Package being orphaned means that there isn’t someone taking care of it and actually taking care of it / maintaining it.
Usually the more active maintainers sometimes update orphaned packages.
Probably a good use for flatpaks as it doesn’t seem to be a simple package to maintain…
If you are an active user of the package I can have a look at it and try to open a PR with the update
I’m definitely an active user of Kdenlive. If you could get it working, that would be wonderful.
I cannot believe I spent two hours learning xbps-src instead of just installing via flatpak…it never crossed my mind.
I did take a quick lock and there only seems to be 2 minor releases behind, 23.04.0 -> 23.04.2 were there any changes/bug fixes that makes you need the latest version ?
No, I just need it to start. It insta-crashes with a note about
glaxnimatemissing.Oh didn’t notice that, I would advise you to open an issue on GitHub then. They should be fast with it :)
It looks like the github bot closed the issue due to lack of testing.
I’ve commented that the branch works, but it’d be great if someone who understands xbps better could verify that it builds correctly.
Doesn’t work for you ?
No, I’m afraid it crashes. I’ve pulled up a VM to check again - same result. It crashes, noting ‘mediainfo’ and ‘glaxnimate’ are missing. I can install mediainfo from the repos, but not glaxnimate:

I hit ‘okay’, and it’s gone. Here’s the full error message:

yeah you are right, I have opened an issue on github.

Sorry for not trying the package ,
