Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.
Apt is merely installing the available packages, so I've moved this issue to the openshot package itself. Most packages in Ubuntu are synced without changes from Debian, so if the package versions are lagging behind upstream, I would recommend reaching out to the Debian maintainer to coordinate and work together on new releases. Since the developers are maintaining a PPA, there should be (hopefully) only minor changes required to get official packages into the archive. While investigating, I found that openshot has been removed from Debian (see https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/openshot and especially https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=889742), and therefore in turn Ubuntu bionic. However, the bug report mentions it has been replaced by openshot-qt (https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/openshot-qt) and this seems to come from the same upstream project. (Not familiar with either package, so feel free to correct me) Openshot-qt will be available in the upcoming Ubuntu 18.04 with what seems to be a matching version to the upstream one, 2.4.1-2build2, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openshot-qt. So it looks like this might be resolved? ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #889742 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=889742 ** Tags added: upgrade-software-version -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1756555 Title: Include openshot.developers stable PPA contents in default Ubuntu repos To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/openshot/+bug/1756555/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
