I ran the code and got this:

paladin@paladin-System-Product-Name:~$ apt-cache search libtiff4
libtiff4-dev - Tag Image File Format library (TIFF), transitional package

Different return than yours - mabye that has something to do with it!?

Downloaded the beta or the next release and it works. The demo seems limited. Hopefully there wont be another reason to address the 'tiff' thing!

I hope you have an external drive, to which you can install a testing distro.
This will enable you to install/unistall things manually, that could potentially
cause issues later, which you would not enjoy, on your production setup.

There will be lot's of issues cropping up like you see with lightworks,
sometimes, one must go and find dependencies at debian.org. I open a filemanager
so I can see what libs and binaries are installed, and if things are missing,
I install them one at a time, and consider any resulting system messages. If you look here

https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/libtiff4-dev

you'll see a list of dependencies below, that includes libtiff4. Now I almost never
manually install any c libraries from such lists, as they are core system elements,
to keeping a system alive. On a test system, installing a codec lib
isn't a big deal. Use synaptic, or command

sudo apt-get install libtiff4,

to make sure you can't get it from the repos.
If you can't, download and install the debian package, and the dependencies
it prompts you for. The command is sudo dpkg -i name-of-package, and you may wind
up repeating the (failed) command a few times, adding each dependency to the command,
until it works, or you come to what may be a crucial system library, and decide to end the quest.
I just checked, since I'm on such a test system, and synaptic showed I have the latest libtiff4,
so i installed the libtiff-dev, libtiff-opengl, libtiff-tools, and five video editors, for a rainy day.
Debian is not ubuntu, (although they share dance partners on occasion) and has separate
repos for stable, testing, and unstable. New things hit unstable (sid) first, then jessie (testing)
and finally wheezy (stable) .
Cheers

G-guy - thanks, I'm in the middle of setting up such a system. It will be on another computer. I'm trying to use the demo of lightworks and it's not so easy. They have instructional videos but the running program doesn't have the same buttons etc.. as the demo. Guess I got to keep messin' around with it.

Hi.
Just been getting started myself with trying to get off a windows system into a linux one..I use vegas and was wondering the same thing about how to get her inside the linux...but so far i tryed through wine on OpenSuse and couldnt get it up to working at all..
then i dug around and ran into this "Blender"
