Kdenlive needs MLT 7 package

[Julius Künzel]

Hi everybody!


MLT 7 has been released about a month ago (https://github.com/mltframework/ mlt/
releases/tag/v7.0.1). MLT is Kdenlive's mediabackend and one of the main dependencies. 
We want to port Kdenlive from MLT 6 to MLT 7 for version 21.08. However one of our 
pipelines (https://build.kde.org/job/Applications/job/kdenlive/[1]) is based on FreeBSD 12 
(https://invent.kde.org/sysadmin/ci-tooling/-/tree/master/doc/FreeBSD[2]) and we are 
now waiting for FreeBSD to release MLT 7. This massage is to inform you about our plans 
as you are might not releasing MLT 7 because Kdenlive needs MLT 6 and we are in a 
vicious circle. Do you have any plans when this will happen?


The packages we need for the pipeline are:
 multimedia/mlt
multimedia/mlt-qt5


Cheers from the Kdenlive dev team,
Julius Künzel
