Heres a post from the Kubuntu forums and here's also how it was solved:

the problem :
just installed cinelerra .deb with GDebi Package Installer from their
website, only where did it install to and how can I open it? it isn't in the
start menu... [image: Huh]


Thanks

How i fixed the user issue:
OK now hold on a lot of information is in this poseted as i tried the deb
package too all it does it add something in the back ground.

*Step 1. *
open terminal and paste this :
wget -q http://akirad.cinelerra.org/pool/addakirad.deb && sudo dpkg -i
addakirad.deb && rm addakirad.deb && sudo apt-get update

it will then ask you for your root pw (likley same as login pw)
[sudo] password for user:

then a lot of stuff will fly by in the terminal screen
*Step 2: *
usern...@pcnamenix:~$ sudo apt-get update

More fly by stuff then
*
Step 3:*
usern...@pcnamenix:~$ sudo apt-get install cinelerra
(then this stuff will appear)
