It's missing on manjaro too, I have kdenlive v. 20.8.1 and the motion tracker is missing.

The effects plugins are not really in our code, we just make possible to use it. The tracker effect is built in MLT if opencv *contrib* modules (containing tracker algorithm) are available at build time. We build the whole stack and ship it in AppImage, Flatpak, and Windows binaries. For other distribution means we have no control of the underlying components (we do update PPA packages, but they are not isolated from the system so we can't upgrade/change things too much). Maybe ask the MLT&OpenCV packagers of your distribution if they have a mean to enable opencv contrib components...
with manjaro or arch you just have to run `sudo pacman -S opencv` and then the effect will be installed.
In kdenlive-21.08.0a-x86_64.appimage, I did not found "Automask" effect... because my system is localized for France, and french name of effect is changing all the time... Thanks to this bug reports, I found it with "track" keyword which found "Suivi de déplacements" (but "auto" and "mask" keyworks didn't).
For information: Auto Mask is depreciated and not part of Kdenlive anymore (as Kdenlive use MLT7 in the background). Use the motion tracker instead.

I have the issue with Kdenlive 22.04.1 installed using the PPA on Kubuntu 22.04 (https://launchpad.net/~kdenlive/+archive/ubuntu/kdenlive-stable/+packages). It is fine using the latest appimage (kdenlive-22.04.0-2-x86_64.AppImage) however. If I understand correctly, "Motion tracker" is in the MLT package, so is this a packaging issue in the PPA ?
The motion tracker has been added to the PPA now.
