Answer 1

The only way I have managed to run kdenlive is by an appimage. Works like a charm. This is what I recommend.

https://kdenlive.org/download/

Latest stable AppImage (17.12.0) is available here: https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/Kdenlive-17.12.0d-x86_64.AppImage.mirrorlist. To install, just download the file and make it executable, ( chmod +x ) in a terminal, then run it.(or right click > Properties > set Execute on)

Answer 2

Try to install these Qt complements on terminal:

sudo apt -y install qml-module-qtquick-controls
