Hello there,

I've emerged the latest amaroK in portage (1.4.3-r1) running on KDE 3.5.4 (with Xgl and compiz-quinnstorm+cgwd upon the Xorg 7.1, if that's of some effect to it) and the app just crashes doing nothing.
When I lanuch it as "amarok --wizard" it shows up the wizard, I configure it the way I want, it tries starting up the app, shows the playlist screen for a second and dies.

I tried amarok once (using 1.3.2) and it worked but with some bugs. I read that those were fixed and had decided to go for a switch yet this happened.

The gdb backtrace says:

Any help?

Reading Gentoo forums seemingly have helped.
Have no idea how (and if) is this related to my problem, but it got solved:

Code: Select all

ln -s /usr/lib/kde3/libamarok_void-engine_plugin.so /usr/kde/3.5/lib/kde3/libamarok_void-engine_plugin.so
ln -s /usr/lib/kde3/libamarok_xine-engine.so /usr/kde/3.5/lib/kde3/libamarok_xine-engine.so

After that, I recreated MySQL database (deleted old one and created it again as written in wiki) and it fired up without problems.

Yay!
