How to install Natron 2.1.2 on Ubunto 16.04

    Natron is a free and open source video compositing software, similar in functionality to Adobe After Effects or Nuke

Natron 2.1.2 Changelog :

•     Viewer: A new button can now force full-frame rendering instead of the visible portion. This may be useful to remove borders artifacts when panning/zooming during playback
•     Fix a bug where the Glow node would not work correctly
•     Windows: Fix a bug where the 32-bit version would crash on launch with AMD Graphic Cards
•     Fix a bug where the Read node would sometimes show an error dialog but everything was in fact fine
•     Fix a bug where changing the output filename in a Write node would reset encoder specific parameters
•     Tracker: when clicking "Set Input RoD" in the From points of the corner pin, automatically re-compute the To points over all keyframes
•     Tracker: A bug was found in the internal algorithm when tracking with a rotation/affine model. This was fixed in co-operation with Blender developers
•     Fix a bug where the .lock file of a project would not go away even if closing Natron correctly
