packages necessary for minimal function not recommended or even suggested

[Keith Worrell]

Binary package hint: kdenlive

When configuring kdenlive it mentions it needs the following packages for the described features. Quite often packages recommend things software can use for certain features and suggests additional packages for tools that go well with packages. Without any of the following kdenlive will start but you get no functionality. The following packages should AT LEAST be suggested, but really need to be recommended. This is a packaging bug.

Inigo for rendering
ffmpeg for multiple formats
libdv or avformat to work with dv files
qimage to work with images
ffplay (and ffmpeg) to work with web cams
recordmydesktop for screen capture
dvgrab for firewire capture
dvdauthor for dvd creation
mkisofs to create dvd iso images

In Jaunty it depends on inigo and ffmepg. It recommends dvgrab. The others could probably be added as suggests or recommends.

[Keith Worrell (keith-penguin)]

Added above mentioned packages that were not already dependent or recommended as suggested packages.

Sorry, not 'in progress', just submitted a simple patch, but I hope that the maintainer would consider the inclusion :)

[Michael Marley (mamarley)]

I am pretty sure all of these are being recommended now, except for dvdauthor. It still needs to be included, though.

[Jonathan Thomas (echidnaman)]

And dvdauthor is now in as a recommend for Kubuntu 9.10. :)
