Ok, there's an updated package in core/updates_testing, please test and report back.

I installed the 2.7.1 version on two computers. On my laptop, everything looks like to work fine. However on my desktop, I got an error message. In french, it is written 

Amarok n'a pas trouvé de module de collection. Il est probable qu'Amarok soit installé sous le mauvais préfixe ; veuillez corriger votre installation en utilisant : 
$ cd /path/to/amarok/source-code/
$ su -c "make uninstall"
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` && su -c "make install"
$ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
$ amarok

If you do not understand French, it says that amarok cannot find the collection module and that is probable that Amarok is installed with a wrong prefix. Finally, it suggests to fix the installation. I did not get this message on my laptop.

In fact, I got the same error on my laptop. So the problem is the same on my both computers.

I found the message in English. It is:

Amarok could not find any collection plugins. It is possible that Amarok is installed under the wrong prefix, please fix your installation using:
$ cd /path/to/amarok/source-code/
$ su -c "make uninstall"
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` && su -c "make install"
$ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
$ amarok

This last issue is because there's a full KDE update to 4.10.4 in core/updates_testing, so amarok was built against that version on the build system. 

You have two options:

1. Install the KDE update from core/updates_testing.
2. Wait for the official update and then install this amarok update.

I tested the first option and amarok starts successfully.

Indeed, I installed all the packages of KDE SC 4.10.4 and the problem has dissapeared.
In addition, this 2.7.1 version seems to fix the problems of crashes. Bug is solved for me on Mageia 3, 64-bits.

update pushed

Status: ASSIGNED => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED

Not yet, this has never been assigned to QA and wasn't pushed with the KDE update.

Now that KDE is pushed, this can be done.

Note to QA: this fixes some critical issues and has been stalled by the KDE update, so I would consider this high priority.

If there are any issues with it, it may need rebuilt against the KDE update.  IIRC, the packages in updates_testing were built when KDE 4.10.4 was in updates_testing.

Advisory:

Tested on Mageia 3 64-bits. The problem described here (crashes) has disappeared. It is good for me.

Thanks Oliver.  Now we need a test on i586.

Whiteboard: (none) => mga3-64-ok

Created attachment 4316 [details]
Screenshot of amarok showing popup saying to check internet connection.

Testing on Mageia 3 i586.

As shown in the attached screenshot, it's complaining that it can't
access "Free Music Charts", telling the user to check their internet
connection.

Can that be disabled?

When running in debug mode, there are some errors shown ...
amarok:                 [ERROR__] [MySqlStorage] "GREPME MySQLe query failed! (1146) Table 'amarok.magnatune_moods' doesn't exist on select count( mood ), mood from magnatune_moods GROUP BY mood;" 
amarok: [ERROR__] [MySqlStorage] "GREPME MySQLe query failed! (1146) Table 'amarok.jamendo_genre' doesn't exist on SELECT DISTINCT jamendo_genre.id, jamendo_genre.name  FROM  jamendo_genre WHERE 1  GROUP BY jamendo_genre.name;" 
amarok: [ERROR__] [MySqlStorage] "GREPME MySQLe query failed! (1146) Table 'amarok.magnatune_genre' doesn't exist on SELECT DISTINCT magnatune_genre.id, magnatune_genre.name  FROM  magnatune_genre WHERE 1  GROUP BY magnatune_genre.name;" 

Other then that, it seems to be working fine.

Can these issues be fixed or would you like the update validated?

Like I said before, this fixes some critical issues and has been waiting *way* too long because of the KDE update.  You can disable the Jamendo and Magnatune plugins with Settings > Configure Amarok > Plugins.  IINM the Free Music Charts thing isn't a regression from 2.7.0 and can probably also be fixed through configuration.  Unless there's some major issue, let's please validate this.

Just a followup on this, it's been there for 4.5 years and can be disabled also:
Settings > Configure Amarok > Scripts.

Advisory 10480.adv uploaded to svn. Validating the update.

Someone from the sysadmin team please push 10480.adv to updates.
