Package: openshot
Version: 1.4.0-1
Severity: normal
When running openshot for the first time, preferences are not saved and openshot
either hangs or crashes when trying.
How to reproduce:
Start openshot for the first time (i.e. remove any existing ~/.openshot/
directory).
Output is this:
== =
asjo@topper:~$ openshot
------------------------- ERROR 1 ------------------------------
Failed to import 'from openshot import main'
Error Message: cannot import name main

I then select Quit from the File menu; output is:

It looks like there is a problem with an integer being passed to something
that expects a string.

Fixes the problem for me; then end of the output instead becomes:

Which is what I expected.
I don't know if it is a Python 2.7-thing or what it is...
