Amarok is busted?

Hitboxx · 09-14-2006, 06:47 AM

Hi Guys

I updated amarok to 1.4.2-1.fc5 using yum but its not loading up.

Error from commandline

Code:

[shrikant@shrilinx ~]$ amarok &
[1] 3912
[shrikant@shrilinx ~]$ Amarok: [Loader] Starting amarokapp..
Amarok: [Loader] Don't run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokapp.
amarokapp: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libamarok.so.0: undefined symbol: _ZN9KLineEdit13focusOutEventEP11QFocusEvent

[1]+  Done                    amarok
[shrikant@shrilinx ~]$

Kernel is FC5smp 2.6.17-1.2174

Help,
Thanks

You will need to recompile Amarok without gdb support. I am not sure how you do through this through the YUM app but I know that Amarok doesn't like gdb for its debugging support.

You want to try 1.4.1 or the new 1.4.3 the 1.4.2 release is a bit of a dog with errors contained in it that have been fixed in the newer version.

Thanks for replies, i updated to 1.4.3 but the problem still exists.

Any other suggestions?

I've had nothing but problems with Amarok; even with 1.4.2, it starts to scan my collection (~2000 songs) and it freezes the whole damn system. Meanwhile Banshee gets it all imported quickly, and never had a problem...

[copying over my reply from fedoraforum]

I ran into this today, updating from 1.4.1-3.fc5 to1.4.3-3.fc5 . There's a missing dependency in the rpm file (I'm guessing). Googling, I found a reference to kdelibs-common. yum list '*kdelibs*' showed there is no kdelibs-common but there is kdelibs. I did "yum update kdelibs" and now amarok is working (though it just cut off a song halfway through).

btw, "yum update kdelibs" brought in a bunch of other things: dependencies that work. :-)

btw, the comment regarding compiling without gdb support _has_ to be a red-herring. I suspect what this message from amarok is refering to is that if you want to run it under gdb, use gdb on amarokapp, not amarok. i.e. amarok is just a wrapper, like the relationship between gcc and cc1. Corrections welcome.
