Bug#778520: pitivi: Segmentation fault on startup

[Francois Gouget]

Package: pitivi
Version: 0.93-4.2
Followup-For: Bug #778520

Dear Maintainer,

I ran into this startup bug too. Fortunately, searching a bit on the Internet I found a
solution below. It's said to have been included upstream so possibly it is actually fixed
in 0.94. However I could not test the package from experimental because of missing
dependencies. In any case this bug should be revisited with the new version so see if it
is fixed.

This fix is described there:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/pitivi/commit/?id=39d4a56b07d9fe2ca4216e2bea4ed4d7da9950a1

And I attached the corresponding patch for Debian.
