While I don't see indications that upstream wouldn't be maintaining and developing pitivi, which seems like a wrong claim, Ubuntu 14.10 does have currently the bug #1377804 that prevents pitivi from starting.
On the 14.04 LTS the pitivi bug #1307746 that affects some of the users seems resolvable. Hopefully the 14.10 problem could also be fixed, but it is different and maybe related to the latest Python or GStreamer changes in 14.10. Meanwhile openshot on 14.10 at least starts up, although requires libav/ffmpeg. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubiquity Slideshow, which is subscribed to ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377592 Title: [UIFe] Replace Pitivi with OpenShot Status in “ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Pitivi does not seem to work in 14.10. The attachment shows the output from my attempt to start it from a terminal window, and judging from the latest comment at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/727851 there is zero interest upstream to keep maintaining Pitivi. In the linked MP I propose that OpenShot is highlighted in the Ubuntu slideshow instead of Pitivi. The MP does not include a change of the Ubuntu GNOME slideshow, since I suppose it should be decided by the dedicated team. As regards the freeze exception, the change would not affect the Ubuntu Desktop Guide, and I will alert the translators about the new string if it gets approved. The proposal may have policy implications, so I have also started a thread at the ubuntu-desktop mailing list: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu- desktop/2014-October/004555.html To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/+bug/1377592/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubiquity-slideshow Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubiquity-slideshow More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
