Looks like Kdenlive somehow tries an incorrect location for MLT.
Can you try starting in a terminal with following syntax:

kdenlive --mlt-path /usr/share/mlt/profiles/

I installed a fresh copy of kubuntu 15.10 x64 with Plasma 5.5.3 (via kubuntu's
backports PPA) and build & installed MLT git master, then kdenilve git master.
Same issue pops up. running from console produces this:

jesse@Cerberus:~$ kdenlive
begin true
end
begin true
end
begin true
end

Sorry, I know this issue probably isn't a bug with Kdenlive per se, but if I
can get this method set up for Ubuntu, then I can keep testing the latest git
version and better offer user support & feedback. Had to switch back to Kubuntu
for more reliable software purposes.

I've been documenting what I'm doing to build and install from git on Kubuntu.
If I can make it fool-proof, and can contribute the steps as documentation for
others. :)

Thanks for the suggestion JB. but the problem persists: the "Next" button is
still greyed out/un-clickable.

When running "./configure" in the mlt directory, this showed up in Konsole:

Could it be improperly configuring MLT?

Yes! Installing the -dev packages for the missing MLT dependencies during build
and install fixed the issue; the "Next" button works! there's still a few
features (Qimage, pixbuf, and the titler widget) I need to work out, but I
think I'll soon have a complete, easy to use (truly) step-by-step process to
building kdenlive git master from source in Kubuntu.

Marking this bug as fixed.

UPDATE: In the "./configure" process of MLT, I realized I needed more Ubuntu
dev packages (e.g. libavformat-dev), and that seems to remove some of the
errors. I'm attempting to install all of the apparent needed packages, then
I'll see if that'll resolve the issue.

--- Comment #2 from Jesse  ---
Not sure if this is related, but when I start Kdenlive (every time), a window
opens saying "Cannot find your MLT Profiles. Please give a path." with an input
field that's filled with this by default: "/usr/local/share/mlt/profiles/".
Changing it to "/usr/share/mlt/profiles/" seems to work, then proceeds to the
start-up wizard, where the OP issue starts.
