I think this is the beginnings of greatness. Installing as I write this reply. Thanks so much JB! Hopefully, at least, from my understanding of snaps, it should offer less time focusing on packaging and possibly simplifying things on your end, yeah?

Hi all,

I just made my Kdenlive snap package available. I am interested in feedback
so for those who want to give it a try, you will find the install
instructions below.

The snap package contains the latest development versions (git master) of
MLT, Frei0r, vid.stab, OpenCV and Kdenlive.

Since some issues remain to be fixed in the snap packaging format, the
package is in "development mode" which means it is not listed on the Ubuntu
Store and you need to pass a special flag to install it.

"Development mode" means that the package has full access to your system
like any normal application and does not run in the contained environment
provided by the snap format.

You can install the package on supported distributions using the following
command:

sudo snap install --edge --force-dangerous --devmode kdenlive-devel

The "force-dangerous" flag is required because the package is in devmode.
The snap application can be started from the terminal with
"kdenlive-devel". You can remove it with:

sudo snap remove kdenlive-devel

This installation does not touch your system's libraries or installed
versions of Kdenlive, MLT or Frei0r so it nice to test the latest git.

This is currently in test, so I don't want to spread it too much until we
have more feedback.

regards
jb

Hi JB

Thanks for your effort!

So trying to install in archlinux and success:

kdenlive-devel (edge) master from 'j-b-m' installed

=)

snap run kdenlive-devel
starting script

/snap/kdenlive-devel/4
testing kdenlive --------------------


(process:12276): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
     Using the fallback 'C' locale.
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
Qt: Session management error: None of the authentication protocols
specified are supported
Non KDE Desktop detected, forcing Breeze icon theme
No LADSPA plugins were found!

Check your LADSPA_PATH environment variable.


Some issues so far:

* So far it failed to create the ffmpegthumbnails using MLT.
* The breeze theme is missing and only a white mode is available.

I tried to test it further but i'm away from my workstation using an old
laptop. Hopefully next week i can give it a go again.

Cheers!
