Openshot is in Squeeze and Sid as native packages now.  Of course that
doesn't help if you're running Lenny or older.

Compiling it is an interesting experience and unlike any other package I
tried to build locally.  There is a script in the source distribution
that will pull in a number of packages and install them and then pull in
several source packages, build, and install them.  It took a while but
in the end it did work on Sid earlier this year.  Lenny might be too old
for this anyway without a lot of manual work.  In the end I was able to
do the simple video editing I wanted which I couldn't accomplish with
any other package I tried.
