I think it should be fine, providing someone does some (light) testing
of the package in an Ubuntu environment to make sure it basically works.

We decided on temporary removal because the Debian maintainer indicated
that this new release was due soon, and we could then re-include pitivi
once it was there.

Title:
  FeatureFreeze exception for new Pitivi release

Status in pitivi package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This exception is necessary because otherwise Pitivi will not be
  available at all in Ubuntu to GNOME users.

  Upstream does not have a ChangeLog. The ChangeLog diff would have been
  huge. Many new features have been introduced past three years without
  being included in any official release. The new features are part of
  the upstream flatpak build since they have been merged. The new
  features have had user exposure, so the risk of introducing buggy
  features is minimal. Also, Pitivi has an extensive set of tests for
  both the functionality and the UI.

  As we're about to make a new release, the Debian package is not ready
  yet. I'm filing this issue in advance.

  Sorry for the timing, we did our best given the resources, at the time
  we found out Pitivi risks not being included in Ubuntu.
