Description

Hello! I just installed Openshot 2.5.1-1 and it throws this Python related traceback when I run openshot-qt:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/openshot-qt", line 6, in <module>

i get a different error, but its definitely broken - this may need to be pinned to qt5-base?

$ openshot-qt

this may need to be pinned to qt5-base?

I think it might possibly have something to do with pyqt5, rather than qt5 itself.

anyhow it's just that it's still broken.
