Hello,
This is a packaging problem: tracker MLT module is built if opencv_contrib tracker module is present at build time.
This library is not very common in distributions, as opencv_contrib is a big beast with some very unstable parts.
If you want to use it, your best option is to use our packages, flatpak or appimage.
Good luck!
