Any kind soul able to help out?
I tried to install a package and received an error from the terminal that
sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
After running:
sudo dpkg --configure -a
I get the following terminal output:
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of kdenlive:
kdenlive depends on melt-7; however:
Package melt-7 is not installed.
dpkg: error processing package kdenlive (--configure):

I've tried removing and purging Kdenlive to no avail - the package manager still seems to be broken.
(ETA: I installed Kdenlive via the PPA)
Trying sudo apt-get install -f yields this output:
sudo apt-get install -f

Any ideas for how to resolve this issue?
melt-7
