kdenlive cannot find the MLT profiles and requests a directory. Clicking ok just terminates kdenlive.
I already switched all packages over to the packman community repository. I double checked it.
I already did the following command as instructed in this related thread:
> LC_ALL=C sudo zypper in --force --from packman.inode.at-suse kdenlive.x86_64 libmlt5.x86_64 libmlt5-modules.x86_64 libmlt5-data.noarchLoading repository data...

I am on a fresh install of 12.2 on a 64bit machine (well, fresh apart from the home directory, but I already deleted all kdenlive-related files in ~/.kde4/.

I ran into this before, and thus I tried everything and I did not succeed. 
So I wrote this post here in despair (my wife was watching and waiting to start video editing while I struggled after upgrading to 12.2 a few days ago :’(), and after hitting post preview, I eventually found the ridiculously simple solution all by myself. I decided to still go ahead and post here, in case another person runs into the same problem. Apologies if this is not post-worthy and just clutters the multimedia subforum.
**SOLUTION:
**just answer kdenlive’s dialog properly by entering
[FONT=courier new]/usr/share/mlt-5/profiles
instead of the suggested
/usr/share/mlt/profiles
For some reason that I do not understand, there is also a directory /usr/share/mlt-4/, but there is no symlink from /usr/share/mlt to /usr/share/mlt-5, which might be helpful to have.[/FONT]
