Amarok crashes on loading after KDE 4.4 final update on 11.1

The other day I fully updated (by updating all in repository unconditionally) to KDE 4.4 final. After that it seems amarok crashes when I try to start it.

Here’s the “Developer Information” from the crash.

Anyone have any insight?

Please post result of

zypper lr -d

and

rpm -qi amarok

I’ve already tried deleting amarok from ~/.kde4/share/apps/

*Disable the VLC repo or delete it.

*Please change your Update repo priority to 99

*Change Packman priority to 20
Be careful you don’t disable repos or refresh when adjusting their priority

Now do this is in this order

zypper dup -r KDE4.4_Core
zypper dup -r Packman Repository

Did some more searching and found a kubuntu thread that suggested deleting the amarok config files in ~/.kde4/share/config/ and that worked. But thanks anyways.:slight_smile:

That didn’t work for me.

Neither did this. If by your post you meant that i should prioritize packman repo rather than the default opensuse update repo, than I did it, but was not able to execute

zypper dup -r KDE4.4_Core

from which repo should I update KDE?

You didn’t explain your problem very clearly

But have you tried deleting all your hidden amarok config files, might want to try that first.

This folder: .kde4/share/apps/amarok

These files:

.kde4/share/config/amarok-appletsrc
.kde4/share/config/amarok_homerc
.kde4/share/config/amarokrc

Yeah, that was the thing he suggested and that was also the thing that didn’t work. Deleted the "amarok*"files in /share/config and backed up the /share/apps/amarok and deleted the original…
still getting the

/usr/lib/libamaroklib.so.1: undefined symbol: _ZN6Plasma7WebView10itemChangeEN13QGraphicsItem18GraphicsItemChangeERK8QVariant
from the cl.

Might be this
