Pitivi worked fine for me on Fedora 11, so this must be a new problem with either Pitivi/Fedora. Let me know if there's any additional info you need. After some googling, I figured this one out. It's a dependency problem in the pitivi RPM file. Pitivi depends on another package, called python-setuptools, but neither RPM nor Yum seem to be aware of this, so installing pitivi via Yum will fail because it doesn't include the python-setuptools RPM. A work around until the pitivi RPM is fixed is to type this from the command line: yum install python-setuptools.noarch-0.6c9-5.fc12.noarch I suppose, technically, it's a separate bug that pitivi crashes so badly with no error message just because of a missing library - it should be a little more graceful and offer the user an explanation for why it crashed that doesn't involve filing bug reports and googling. Maybe a dialog box that says "couldn't find python-setuptools, try installing manually" would be a good start. Confirm that the fix on #3 works. pitivi-0.13.3-3.fc12 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 12. http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/pitivi-0.13.3-3.fc12 pitivi-0.13.3-3.fc12 has been pushed to the Fedora 12 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update pitivi'.
