python-mlt3 dependancy

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Finally got my flowblade working with supersams help with the screen size patch 
but now having an issue on my wifes computer which seems to be in a never 
ending loop of dependencies.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install through Synaptic Package Manager, which leads to multiple 
unfulfilled  dependencies. See below for output from Synaptic.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
For it to install. Dependency errors.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ubuntu 12.04 and the latest version of Flowblade.

Please provide any additional information below.

All of these were performed through Synaptic...
1. - Try to install python-mlt3
python-mlt3:
 Depends: libmlt4 but it is not going to be installed

2. - Try to install libmlt4
python-mlt3:
 Depends: libmlt++3 but it is not going to be installed

3. - Try to install libmlt++3
ibmlt++3:
 Depends: libmlt5 but it is not going to be installed

4. - Install libmlt5
This removes libmlt4 and then back to square one...

I have also tried clean, update, upgrade and nothing seems to work. I have also 
had outputs saying there are broken packages, although which ones are broken I 
have no idea. I have tried fixing these through Synaptic as well but it doesn't 
seem to do anything.

Are you using any PPAs which might be related to these packages? If you can, 
try to ppa purge them and install all the packages from source. This isn't a 
bug with flowblade, more one of apts numerous balls ups - one of the reasons i 
moved off debian based distros.

Ok, getting rid of the PPAs for kdenlive and openshot allowed me to get the 
dependencies installed and thereby allowing me to install Flowblade. Commented 
out the screen check lines and thought it was going to work. NOT

Tried to launch by way of the launcher and it just seemed to sit there. Ended 
up having to kill the flowblade process. This is repeatable every time I launch.

Launching from the command line and I get this.

FLOWBLADE MOVIE_EDITOR 0.6.0

Drawing a blank now.

Can consider the original issue closed as it is fixed. Issue now relates to 
issue 2 on project.

where do I get python-mlt3 ??? 

in the debian wheezy repos is python-mlt5 and the flowblade .deb di'n want it.

Also with the install script I get an error:

Error: no such file "FLOWBLADE MOVIE_EDITOR 0.6.0"
flowblade: 30: flowblade: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

Next version will be compatible with python-mlt5.
