Bug#951727: qmelt: command not found

[Celelibi <celelibi@gmail.com>]

Package: shotcut
Version: 20.02.17-1
Followup-For: Bug #951727

The error message is pretty simple (and is mostly the subject of this
bug report).

When I try to export a video, the export job fails immediately and its log
(accessible via right-click on the job) says verbatim:

/usr/bin/nice: '/usr/bin/qmelt': No such file or directory
Failed with exit code 127


However, I think I found a workaround.
As I understand, qmelt is supposed to be provided by mltframework. It
looks like it's actually part of the melt package, with the name 'melt',
instead of 'qmelt'.

Therefore, an easy workaround that works for me is to install melt and
make a symlink from qmelt to melt.

I'm not sure whether the package melt is actually supposed to provide a
binary named qmelt. Anyway I guess a fix could be to add a dependency to
melt and add a postinst script that runs:
ln -s /usr/bin/melt /usr/bin/qmelt

Best regards,
