There are some very straightforward instructions here: > > http://tinyurl.com/5psknr > > see the table of contents at the bottom I have Mint Linux (Ubuntu) also installed so I tried there and I got Kdenlive to compile but it crashes on every command I tried. It imports files but it crashes if I try to do anything with them :( I don't understand how Dan Sawyer could claim that it is rock solid :( But still it could be my error in compiling some part and it still would be great to see kdenlive as a package in rpmfusion repositories... I'll drop them a note.
