I meet the same problem as Paolo Valtorta (topic starter). I have to say, most probably the problem is not with debian's openshot 1.1.3 package, but with openshot-1.0.0 .deb-package you have got earlier from openshot site (as I did). That package (they say, it's for Ubuntu? does it matter?) seems to be absolutely invalid.
Warning! It installs files (or part of them) and subdirs under /usr tree as user-owned! As I understand it put .deb file owner id on extracted files! ser...@bagira:/usr/share/openshot$ ls -la итого 72 drwxr-xr-x 13 sergio sergio 4096 Июн 15 18:15 . drwxr-xr-x 364 root root 16384 Июн 15 18:14 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 sergio sergio 4096 Июн 15 18:15 classes drwxr-xr-x 3 sergio sergio 4096 Июн 15 18:14 effects drwxr-xr-x 2 sergio sergio 4096 Июн 15 18:14 export_presets ...etc...

That directory and cached files are not removed. The same in case of package upgrade. And they interfere with files from upgraded version. You SHOULD remove /usr/share/openshot directory with its contents to fix the problem. (1.1.3 doesn't use that dir) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
