Re: OpenShot .DEB Update

 

Here is another .DEB update:  I have successfully created .DEBs for the
following systems.  As you can see, this is why I've been so busy the last
few days.

*All CPUs* / All Ubuntu versions:
 - OpenShot (installed to /usr/local/share... also  /usr/local/bin)

32 Bit *Ubuntu 8.04*:
 - Frei0r
 - x264
 - FFmpeg
 - MLT
 - MLT Python Bindings

32 Bit *Ubuntu 8.10*:
 - Frei0r
 - x264
 - FFmpeg
 - MLT
 - MLT Python Bindings

32 Bit *Ubuntu 9.04*:
 - Frei0r
 - x264
 - FFmpeg
 - MLT
 - MLT Python Bindings

*64 *Bit *Ubuntu 8.04*:
 - Frei0r
 - x264
 - FFmpeg
 - MLT
 - MLT Python Bindings

*64 *Bit *Ubuntu 8.10*:
 - Frei0r
 - x264
 - FFmpeg
 - MLT
 - MLT Python Bindings

*64 *Bit *Ubuntu 9.04*:
 - Frei0r
 - x264
 - FFmpeg
 - MLT
 - MLT Python Bindings
*
Total:  31 Deb Installers*, across 6 different Linux installations.

I have some final details to fix in these .DEB files (which might take me
another day or two to finish), but basically I'm done with the hard part.
I'm going to post them up via FTP for you guys to help me test with (again,
you might have to wait another day or two).  Once we are happy with them,
I'll upload them to LaunchPad, and update the website.

Oh yeah, there is a much improved build wizard that goes along with these
changes (it's not checked in yet).  It should work way better on 32 bit
systems, and hopefully will fix most of the problems people were having.

Thanks!
-Jonathan
