flowblade irregular file save behavior

[Sanjay Basu]

Package: flowblade (2.4.0.1-2) [universe]
Ubuntu version: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

flowblade 2.4.0 (packaged in Ubuntu 20.04) crashes on project file save.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open flowblade
2. edit videos
3. File --> Save As
4. Choose filename
5. Save

Expected result: Project is saved

Actual result: Project is saved but save file dialog remains open and information in terminal shows:

Saving project...
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/flowblade/Flowblade/projectaction.py", line 492, in _save_as_dialog_callback
    save_time = time.clock()
AttributeError: module 'time' has no attribute 'clock'

After searching, it seems that in python 3.8, time.clock is deprecated.

Solution: It has been fixed in development version from https://github.com/jliljebl/flowblade

Thank you,

Thanks.

I'd recommend you build your own binary for the moment.

And I would like to wait for this one
"Next release: Flowblade Movie Editor 2.6 is coming in June 2020."
