Hi all

A few months ago I was on a chakra box with SC 4.4 on it and I remember having the option to enable thumbnails for audio files out of the box.
I am now on a debian box, with SC 4.4.3 that just shipped, and I am not able to find this option in the Dolphin config menu (it starts with comic books, and no audio at all). The files are the same, so of course, they still have the embedded image ;)
Am I missing something, or should I report it directly to debian?

At least on openSUSE there is an extra third-party package that needs to be installed before audio file thumbnails are available. Chakra makes a number of distribution-specific changes, this may be one of them.

Do you happen to have the name of this third-party package?
