 Posted: Tue Jan 13, 2009 8:23 pm Post subject: Amarok fails to start [solved] |
 |
|
If I try to start amarok it fails with a pop up saying (thank god the text is highlightable):
| Code: |
Amarok could not find any sound-engine 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"
$ kbuildsycoca
$ amarok
More information can be found in the README file. For further assistance join us at #amarok on irc.freenode.net. |
The shell sais:
| Code: |
$ amarok
Amarok: [Loader] Starting amarokapp..
Amarok: [Loader] Don't run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokapp.
kbuildsycoca running...

Amarok: [Loader] Amarok is taking a long time to load! Perhaps something has gone wrong?

What to do?

Eix says that there is some heavy masking in kdelibs. Does this cause the error?
| Code: | # eix kdelibs
