Unfortunately I missed the IRC meeting so I'll ask my last questions here.

I did a dependency check on existing package and found some extra libs. It's not the most current package but some of them were: dvgrab, freior, libiec, libgavl, dvdauthor... and more.

Are any of these required for the build or are they pluggable? I'm asking because I noticed with Kdenlive on Linux that some dependencies can be missing and it only affects the functionality but not the actual build. How does that work?

I've already been warned about the KF version situation. If I understand
correctly, Kdenlive is currently on KF4 but is in the process of being
ported to KF5? I guess it could be problematic if KF5 branch is not in
stable enough state for me.
Can someone explain me what is the current situation with Kdenlive and KF?
A KF5 based version of Kdenlive will be released as part of KDE Applications
15.04 and thus in April and thus soon ;-). (damn, reminder to myself, should
start on release notes for 15.04 ;-).
I confirm, branch "master" is about to be officially released 
("Applications/15.04").
Based on KF5, it should be usable (unfortunately not much tested), at least a 
good basis for work.
The more unstable branch is "frameworks" in which JB and I are working on 
refactoring, still functional but not very safe...

In general KDE Frameworks 5 (KF5) or most of it should work on Windows too
(they're after all Qt Addons). And there is even work going on to extend our
KDE CI build infrastructure to Mac OSX and Windows. As I read tonight MacOSX
should already work.
And it seems MacPorts are running quite well, as the bugs received from this 
platform don't seem blocking whole functionality.

Are there any other dependencies which I should be worried about?
This is a question that Vincent and jb could answer.
Kdenlive is based on MLT, itself based on FFmpeg.
MLT is delivered on Mac and Windows at least for Shotcut (also based on Qt5).

I don't expect much work on source are bringing dependences, those 2 ports are 
mainly a packaging work, for which we haven't much knowledge in the team...

Btw guys, what about a Kdenlive IRC meeting for all the GSoC interested
students?
==> https://framadate.org/ii781kpcyh98p31i
(will remind in a separate mail)

Specify exactly which tests I will carry out after successful build?
Unfortunately we have not a single test written :-(
I personally run small projects with several clip types, effects types 
(keyframe, region...), transitions, play with the opened timeline...
really insufficient I admit.

It is impossible to know what kind of problems could appear at
compiling and linking so I'm not sure what to write on that. I am also
not sure what exactly I should explain in regard to CI and installer
since that's pretty much standardized stuff.
Installer may be standard but we don't have it, don't find time/interest to 
learn and do it by ourselves...
CI is on KDE sysadmins side, we should ask them (IRC?)

Best regards, Klemen
