The build page (https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/kdenlive/-/blob/master/dev-docs/build.md) says that 24.10 is supported. Particularly, that the required mlt version is >= 7.22.0. Ubuntu 24.10 has MLT version 7.24 (https://packages.ubuntu.com/oracular/libmlt++7) but cmake says that 7.28.0 is required.

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.30/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:233 (message):
  Could NOT find MLT: Found unsuitable version "7.24.0", but required is at
  least "7.28.0" (found /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmlt-7.so)
