It was daunting to me at first to attempt to build the source version
but I wanted the latest so I dug in. On ubuntu use synaptic package
manager to install all the libraries you need. On the lives site are
instructions and most of the libraries but you should go through the
output of ./configure to get everything. Once all the libraries are
installed it's easy: ./configure make make install
You can do it.

Hi David,
I can't say that there is a canonical version of LiVES. In terms of
currency, the most up to date versions are probably Debian (unstable ?
testing ?) and Ubuntu (via the ubuntu handbook PPA). Some good news is
that I have been communicating recently with some RPMFusion guys and
there should be an official RPMFusion version of LiVES (and thus for
Fedora) coming out soon. You can follow this on
https://bugzilla.rpmfusion.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3912
The Linux Mint version should be avoided as it is over 2 years behind
and known to be buggy.
There are versions for other distros but I have not tested them
Suse:
http://packman.links2linux.org/package/LiVES
(seems to be up to date)
Slackware:
http://www.slacky.eu/asche/pkgs/index.php?pkgname=LiVES (link seems to
be broken...)
Arch:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/lives/
(seems to be up to date)
I believe there are also versions for gentoo and Mageia.
Perhaps some other users can recommend the versions they are using.
Regards,
Gabriel.

I've been using Lives occasionally for a few years now, primarily on
Debian "stable". While lack of crashing is a good thing, being many
revisions behind on Lives and all that it requires is not. Notably
codec available, quality, and robustness in the face of the
unexpected.
Which GNU/ Linux distributions have recent versions of common
multimedia
applications, and support them well -- Lives, Handbrake, Audacity,
Rosegarden, etc.?
Is there a canonical GNU/ Linux distribution for Lives?
TIA,
David
