PPA to test future 17.12 (timeline rewrite)

[Vincent Pinon]

Hi Jesse,

As explained during café (hoped to see you there ;)
LTS has a tool old Qt version, and it will be quite long to repackage the Qt stack (into /opt to avoid breaking other apps)
AppImages / FlatPack / Snaps could be a solution, but not ready yet, maybe after Randa in September...
Or back in early KF5 times, I explained how to create a chroot to run recent distro packages:
https://community.kde.org/Kdenlive/Development/KF5#Older_Linux_Distributions

Only 7 months more and LTS will be up to date :\

Awesome stuff, Vincent! Appreciate the time you've taken to set all of this up.


One comment: I did a poll on the Ubuntu G+ community, asking users whether they use the LTS ubuntu releases or the non-LTS. So far, over 1,090 people have voted, and a STAGGERING 71% use LTS releases on their primary machines (https://plus.google.com/+JesseDuBordFilms/posts/3VkkxrzCzZV[1]). I might encourage support for the latest LTS release for Kdenlive PPA's, in both the new timeline ppa and the master ppa (seems like LTS support is already in stable ppa). Having packages for those LTS versions would expand the use of them, drastically, based on my findings.

Hello,

I've finally finished the setup of a new PPA to test the future Kdenlive 17.12 version,
containing a "kdenlive-test" package that can coexist with a normal "kdenlive" package (17.04 or 17.08)...
ppa:kdenlive/kdenlive-17.12preview

The build lives in /opt/kdenlive-test
I forgot to install an icon to a standard path, so you have to create one or run the command: /opt/kdenlive-test/bin/kdenlive

As usual, I publish quickly before testing seriously, so be prepared for deception :-p
Don't hesitate to send me your remarks, and if you find it interesting, I let you share the info on your networks (reminding this is experimental software)...

Vincent.
