Cannot build OpenShot

It is no secret that Arch based distributions often is ahead of other distributions. Over time this fact has been discussed many times especially around large shifts within desktop environments.

  • Kubuntu 25.10 provides Plasma 6.4
  • Kubuntu 24.04 provides Plasma 5.27
  • Manjaro Stable provides 6.5

Members has been asking the same question over and over - when will Stable branch update - now it updates - inevitable some will complain.

Please get a grip on your system - take responsibility - it is free.

That is your freedom as system administrator - how you handle your system is your responsibility - you cannot project that responsibility - especially not when you rely on a custom package like Openshot.

Your system was functional for longer period of time than it would have been otherwise - take solice in that

I beg to differ - because appimage should be self-contained - as quoted earlier.

It is generating a runtime failure inside the appimage mount, how can that not be a bug in the appimage?

While the majority of Manjaro userbase have no issues - inevitably - there is always some blaming Manjaro and question if they will continue to use Manjaro.

Openshot is not in the repos - a custom package - you you built it, if it breaks you fix it - you use a flatpak or appimage, if it cease function, you talk to those developing the appimage or the flatpak.

At one point I decided to showcase how you control your environment.
