I never was able to run cinelerra... it crashed tooo badly... I'm a professional linux and service provider since 2004, and I know no to migrate to my workflow to the newer versions until fully tested....
That is how Open Source works, and every time there is a big change, like newest version from KDEnlive, a lot of work is needed to get to the stability of the previous I remeber when linux changed to glibc, what a nightmare, migration from lilo to grub? awful... the introduction of LVM? just dont' start when kdelibs changed their licence model to GPL.... O my good what a soup opera is Linux... This instability is needed, but will always achieve better results.... Don't give up on kdenlive, just return to your working version, that is the idea of appimages, allow us go back and forth version with out compromising our source of income... That is how professionals work...
