Description Waldemar Szostak 2011-01-15 22:06:56 UTC
Hi,

Just compiled and installed the latest amarok. Installation went smoothly. However, when I tried to run it, I saw a popup with a progress bar that kept resetting. After 10-15 minutes, I cancelled it and got an error box with the following text (the text was in Polish, below there's my translation):
Amarok couldn't find the plugin collection. Probably it has been installed with a wrong prefix, please fix your installation by executing:
$ cd /path/to/source/code/of/amarok
$ su -c "make uninstall"
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` && su -c "make install"
$ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
$ amarok

More information can be found in README file. To get more help, join #amarok on irc.freenod.net.



I guess I've got all the information I need from this message, but I suppose it's not correct, so I decided to report it. As I can't use amarok at all now, I set the priority to critical.

Reproducible: Always

Well, after upgrading all of KDE 4.5.5 and restarting the machine, it started working all of sudden. You guys decide if it makes the bug report invalid or not :)

Well since it works now we can't do much I guess
