running amarok 2.2 for the first time prompts the program do scan the collection all over again, canceling it show a window that recommends to install with right prefix. removing .kde4/share/apps/amarok/ won't help. Reproducible: Always
Created attachment 205902 [details] displayed error this is what I get when I hit cancel
I have the same problem. I am running on ~amd64 arch.
solved! running kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental did the trick
i have the same problem, except canceling it doesn't give me that window, it successfully cancels, but then starts right back up running kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental does NOT help for me this pretty much renders amarok unusable for me :/
Is any of you using +kdeprefix?
nope

i'm not using kdeprefix either i'll try nuking the db, in the meantime, turning off "watch folders for changes" in tools -> settings -> collection fixes it (sorta)
After a logout - login amarok worked without problems. I haven't used such tricks for quite a long now so I tend to neglect these simple methods. :-)

I'm closing this bug as there has been no more reports and I didn't hit this problem with 2.2.0, 2.2.1 and 2.2.1-r1.
