I\'ve been trying to build the latest from SVN, and it successfully compiles and installs. However, when I run it, the GUI appears for just a second, then it crashes. When I run it from a terminal I get lots of debugging output, but the interesting line is this one:

amarokapp: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libamarok.so.0: undefined symbol: _ZN6TagLib7FileRef19addFileTypeResolverEPKNS0_16FileTypeResolverE

The only thing I can think of that might cause problems is that I\'m running on AMD64; there weren\'t any precompiled taglib binaries for my system, so I had to compile them myself. I installed it in /usr/local/lib , and I still have taglib 1.3 installed in /usr/lib, because k3b insists on having it.

I\'ve checked the config.log in amarok-svn\'s directory, and it finds taglib in /usr/local and seems to link against it, though, so I\'m not sure what the problem could be...

It picks up the wrong TagLib. Remove TagLib 1.3.

But what should I do about k3b, which insists on having taglib 1.3 installed?

K3B should work just as well with TagLib 1.4. So just force remove 1.3, like --force --nodeps for rpm.

Well, I force-removed taglib 1.3, then built debs of 1.4 and installed it, and then amarok worked. However, the next time I did an update through Adept, it decided to remove k3b and a couple of kdemultimedia packages because I didn\'t have the taglib they expected. I suppose I\'ll see if I can find the source for them and recompile them so they\'ll expect taglib 1.4...

the addFileTypeResolver stuff was added to taglib 1.4, so the problem is definitely due to taglib 1.3 being used.
