Attempting to compile Shotcut video editor

Here is the Shotcut homepage:

https://www.shotcut.org/

Compile fail, have raised two issues with them:

https://github.com/mltframework/shotcut/issues/1216

https://github.com/mltframework/shotcut/issues/1217

...hope they respond!

EDIT:
I managed to compile it, and it starts up, but is unusable. This is a show-stopper bug, already reported, I have posted here:

https://github.com/mltframework/shotcut/issues/1057

What is going on? This is the third video editor I have tried and they all have show-stopper bugs. Well, no, there was a fourth, Avidemux, that works.
