Please also leave a message in bodhi saying it worked:

Then Jef can get the package pushed more easily into the actual updates
repositories.
So it seems Istanbul is now able to record videos with sound (at least,
it was long time missing), which is an useful feature.
However, I will be picky and list another needed feature: video quality
adjustment (not having it, I find compelled to use gtk-RecordMyDesktop
instead, but that had its share of problems too).
Istanbul have a predefined, low, setting quality. This is suboptimal for
a couple of reasons:
- a maximum video quality (100 for RecordMyDesktop) is much easier on
your CPU (less compression to do), so it allows recording screencasts on
less powerful machines (at the price of larger file sizes);
- the built it video quality in Istanbul is low, very low. While it may
not matter when uploading to YouTube, which lowers the quality even
further, for desktop viewing it *is* noticeable.
