I see. Dependency version problems?

If you think this is bad, you should see the bug tracker and forums!

We can help you focus in on a particular area of interest as it is all
very well layered and modular: obviously frei0r and LADSPA as plugins,
but also within FFmpeg and MLT - a bit less so within Kdenlive, but
not too bad. However, you will need to get over the custom build hump.
