The official, maintained and up-to-date PPA for cinelerra is, well, cinelerra (not cinelerra-cv):
https://launchpad.net/~cinelerra-ppa/+archive/ppa I created the cinelerra-cv PPA repository for cases where multiple version of cinelerra repositories were to be installed. However, that created much trouble and the cinelerra-cv is now deprecated, and out of date. >From a binary perspective, both PPA come from the same source, i.e. the >community version of cinelerra. So I strongly recommend to use the one >provided in the link above. Current packages in the cinelerra PPA ara available for ubuntu releases from Hardy (8.04) to Quantal (12.10). As I maintain the PPA, please let me know if you have any question/comment/bug to report.

Haven't heard of anyone compiling under 12.10 yet, and hence overcoming any issues likely to occur. Will let the more technical boffins on this distribution list expand further... BTW, I'm not planning to upgrade my 12.04 at the moment.

However, when I tried to do so following the instructions in the tutorial, I get the following error message: Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: cinelerra-cv : Depends: libguicast1 (= 1:2.2-0.6~ppa1~quantal1) but 1:2.2-0.12~ppa1~quantal1 is to be installed Depends: libmpeg3cine (= 1:2.2-0.6~ppa1~quantal1) but 1:2.2-0.12~ppa1~quantal1 is to be installed Depends: libquicktimecine (= 1:2.2-0.6~ppa1~quantal1) but 1:2.2-0.12~ppa1~quantal1 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. ---------------------- I then decided to just install the other version (sudo apt-get install cinelerra) after adding that repository. It seemed to install OK. Which version is recommended? Of course, if I want to use it, my only option is the non-CV version. Is this problem a bug which needs to be fixed, or is there something different that I should be doing? Thanks for any suggestions/advice.
