** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
- Some users are unable to start Pitivi on 14.04 LTS, because of a
- crasher.
+ Some users, mostly users who have installed more software like eg.
+ GStreamer codecs needed for common formats, are unable to start Pitivi
+ on 14.04 LTS, because of a crasher.
  
  [Test Case]
  
  Start pitivi on affected computer.
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
- The suggested patch that fixes the problem changes the load order in
- python, which seem fragile then. However at least testing on one
- computer that did not have the crash originally, the fix doesn't break
- anything either.
+ The original single patch fixed the issue but caused another window to
+ pop up behind the Pitivi window, which was a regression for fresh
+ install users. The new patch set both fixes the crasher and improves the
+ overall Pitivi usage like timeline drawing without regressions.

  I just upgraded to Kubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) yesterday, and pitivi stopped
  working. It segfaults immediately, with the following stdout error:
  
  lmilano@grisell:crash$ pitivi
  Missing soft dependency:
  - pycanberra not found on the system
      -> enables sound notifications when rendering is complete
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  
  Apport is not popping up, even if I launch pitivi from the main menu in
  KDE. But it did, just once, and it dumped a report in /var/crash - I
  will try to upload that file manually.

** Summary changed:

- pitivi crashed with SIGSEGV in __GI___pthread_mutex_lock()
+ [SRU] pitivi crashed with SIGSEGV in __GI___pthread_mutex_lock()
