Detailed Description
Update of MLT from v6 to v7 breaks the builds, binaries changed the name and devel files changed the location [1], authors argue that facilitates have 2 versions of MLT at same time, but I personally don't want keep 2 versions of MLT because MLT just have 3 or 5 projects that use it.
