Strangely enough, my amarok is not fetching covers from amarok. And it is built amazon support.

It's due to a change in the Amazon service, they've deprecated the method that Amarok was using to get the covers. A message somewhere on the Amarok website says they'll update it to get it working again on the next release. In the mean time we'll just have to fetch the covers manually or do without.

Any ideas why 1.4.9.1 is still masked? I do not see any critical bugs in gentoo bugs

No idea, it works though as far as I can tell. Up till now, I have had no issues with it.

Same here. I've been running the ~x86 version of Amarok for a year with hardly any problems at all.
