Kdenlive is currently version 0.9.6-5 in Debian Unstable and at version
0.9.6-2ubuntu2 in Trusty. Since the last version common to Debian and
Ubuntu in May 2013, the changes in Debian were as follows:
kdenlive (0.9.6-5) unstable; urgency=low
* Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.5 (no changes needed).
* Don't explicitly request xz compression - dpkg 1.17 does this by default.
* Point debian/watch to new download location.
kdenlive (0.9.6-4) unstable; urgency=low
* Suggest khelpcenter4.
Closes: #721585

kdenlive (0.9.6-3) unstable; urgency=low
* Move from ffmpeg to avconv.
Closes: #710419
* Build depend on libmlt >= 0.9.0.
* Add patch 01-desktop-keywords to fix lintian warning
desktop-entry-lacks-keywords-entry.
-- Patrick Matthäi <[email protected]> Tue, 13 Aug 2013 11:07:09 +0200
kdenlive (0.9.6-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Uploading to unstable.

The last changes in the Ubuntu changelog since that same version common to
Debian are as follows:

I don't know how to merge a package but I don't see any changes in Debian that
Ubuntu would need to worry about. The one substantial change (the ffmpeg-avconv
conversion reflecting the ffmpeg/avconv fork) appears in both changelogs.
There was an audio rendering bug that appeared
during the summer and later disappeared in the 0.9.7 PPA development versions I
use,
but that bug must have been in libavconv and not in Kdenlive, as there were no
changes to
Kdenlive that would have explained the fix. At any rate, I just tested the
current Ubuntu
version and it works fine with no trace of last summer's audio issue on
rescaling.
Little has happened upstream in Kdenlive since last summer. The lead developer
got
overwhelmed and dropped off the grid for a while, but is now back. The main
project
they were working on at the time was a major refactoring that would not
generate any
usable releases until it is finished. There is version 0.9.7 in Sunab's PPA,
but the
changelog contained in its source code as of late November contained no entries
beyond
0.9.6 and it is NOT in Debian unstable.
Until there is new upstream activity, Kdenlive is essentially the same as it
was in Saucy or
even Raring, though a very good and very usable program at that level. I use it
several
times a week with AVCHD videos and the only thing I really miss having is GPU
acceleration
of effects and ultimately GPU rendering. The Kdenlive team lists at least the
first and I
think both as mid-term goals of the refactoring but not expected until 2015.
