This current version has some serious issue since it was based off of the Master branch rather than the Stable branch.
The problems relate to unstable plugins, and features that were not ready for production.
Since Tursty is an LTS, only stable mature software  should be in the repos.

These problems effect users in unpredictable ways that can lead to loss
of user data which could be a potential security risk.

please fix this

[Impact]
Users of the Trusty version currently have half implemented features, and some that are broken. The Stable branch fixes those problems and protects the users from unexplained data loss.  The Stable branch is the proper implementation of key features (like the Mixer), rather than the current unstable version

[Test Case]
Open LMMS look at the mixer.  It is missing all the channels.  This is a serious regression.  Wattsyn is also an incomplete Synth, with many unpredictable results.

[Regression Potential]
Since there are half finished features in the Trusty version users that have not experienced any serious issues may have song files that wont work with the Stable version.  However, backporting the version in Utopic would fix this issue, as it is version 1.0.1, which fixes those issues.
