Hence I wanted to give it a try with OpenShot video editor. I was able to install it using Linux (64-bit AppImage) on Fedora Linux 39 but unfortunately I am not able to start it.
It gives me Traceback -
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/cx_Freeze/initscripts/startup.py”, line 40, in run
File “/usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/cx_Freeze/initscripts/Console.py”, line 37, in run
File “openshot_qt/launch.py”, line 55, in
from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QApplication
ImportError: /tmp/.mount_gearlecnRkgF/usr/bin/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.35’ not found (required by /lib64/libharfbuzz.so.0)
Any help will be really great.
NOTE: No permission issue with executable.
Additionally, if someone can advise me a good opensource video editing app which works nicely with Fedora. I would really appreciate that.
I cannot be certain this is the issue, but it would appear that package is using python 3.8 while F39 has python 3.12 installed and there are noticeable differences. A lot of things that worked well between 3.8 & 3.11 have problems with 3.12 being installed.
There also is a comment there about GLIBC_2.35 and F39 runs glibc version 2.38, which appears to be the actual breakage…
First, thanks for the mention to my talk on the Creative Summit. I’ve always used openshot from rpm, but last time I try the flatpak version and it works flawlessly.
Give it a try to the flatpak version, or just go plain on the rpm version.
Hope you can try it, it’s an awesome piece of software.
