This has been solved for Java versions, for gcc release, for databases, and for multiple python releases. /etc/alternatives mostly works, compat libraries work, SCL installs work. Let’s avoid inventing another packaging and naming scheme for this, we’re only just recovering from “modularity”. S

Thanks Luya, I have all ffmpeg and gstreamer codecs installed. However, I think blender was installed by OpenShot before I actually installed ffmpeg and gstreamer codecs. So, it might be the reason why it does not play videos or music. But, reinstalling blender didn't help. Never had this issue bef
