Description of problem: Amarok give an error the first time its run after being installed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): amarok-2.0.2-3.fc10.i386 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use PackageKit to install Amarok on a Gnome desktop 2. Select run from the packagekit popup when the install is finished. Actual results: Amarok could not find any collection plugins. Amarok is now updating the KDE configuration database. Please wait a couple of minutes, then restart Amarok. If this does not help, it is likely that Amarok is installed under the wrong prefix, please fix your installation using: $ cd /path/to/amarok/source-code/ $ su -c "make uninstall" $ ./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix` && su -c "make install" $ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental $ amarok More information can be found in the README file. For further assistance join us at #amarok on irc.freenode.net. Expected results: Amarok runs without error. Additional info:
I've seen that error was when running amarok in gnome too, but otherwise, there were no ill effects, and amarok still ran fine. Were there any other symptoms or badness?
ping?
Sorry about the late reply. I haven't noticed any other adverse effects after allowing amarok to crash the first time with the error above and restarting it. On every load since then things seem to be fine. Its just a very bad user experience to get an error of that type after an install.
based on the last reply going to close this. please feel free to reopen if the problem returns
Still happening in Fedora 19. The error message is still the same, happens only on the first run after installation - erasing config files from ~/.kde does not make it reappear, but "yum erase amarok && yum install amarok" makes it come back again.

Just happened to me on a clean install of F21. I'm using KDE.
