Dear Andraz,

Don't you think that providing all the packages is a nonsense?
Distros should do this if there is a common interest. In ubuntu it is
a nonsense to have 1 apt-source  for 1 program!

I would rather prefer that cinelerra:

0) cinerella runs from its source dir e.g.  cd hvirtual;./cinelerra works

1) there exists a binary tar  - as static as possible
    (all "video" libs for sure as static) which you unpack and run.
    I notice that cin anyways contains most of libs inside- really good.

2) this tar is generated (semi)automatically after each svn revision, and all
    older tars are also preserved.

I never used any ubuntu packages of cin because they where always too old.
Cin is not in "final shape" and sometimes minor changes matters.... ;-)

Also it would be nice to be able to use 2 versions at the same time which is rather
difficult at the moment. .bcast should have also version number,
event like  .bcast2.1r945.

I also never understood why make install "spreads" the program into few dirs across
my system.... then e.g. running 2 versions is cumbersome.

Just my 3 cents

The best

        Marcin
