Since the upgrade of KDE 4.11, amarok has stopped working. Amarok 2.8 beta fixes the issue.

Reproducible: Always

I was going to do the version bump, but I cannot test because I think I hit bug #480702.
Comment 2 David Kredba 2013-08-17 09:08:20 UTC
Amarok 2.8 is out now.
Comment 3 Martin Walch 2013-08-19 11:47:54 UTC
Can amarok-2.7 be blocked by >=kde-4.11? It is an official incompatibility that may not show up before runtime. I think it would be better if portage refused installing the incompatible version of amarok in the first place.

*amarok-2.7.1-r1 (19 Aug 2013)

  Straight to stable revision bump, as KDE SC 4.11.0 and <amarok-2.8 don't work
  well together


We need to clean out older releases of amarok or add the blocker there, too.

Older releases are now pruned.
