Amarok 1.4.4 for Mandriva 2007

amarok-1-4-41 Here is the ultimate version of Amarok ! The version 1.4.4 of Amarok was released today, and I’ve added it to my brand new Mandriva 2007 repository. As a bonus, this RPM support three database system to store audio collections: SQLite (default), MySQL and Postgresql.

I’ve noticed that MusicBrainz features are broken in the default Amarok 1.4.3 which come with Mandriva 2007. Unfortunately, those features are still broken in this release. Sorry.

  1. I solved my problem for having musicbrainz working in this version of Amarok. I just had to install id3lib-3.8.3-10mdk.i586.rpm

  2. Hi longwei,

    id3lib was also not installed on my machine. So I’ve done a urpmi id3lib which installed id3lib-3.8.3-10mdk.i586 and libid3_3.8_3-3.8.3-10mdk.i586.

    Unfortunately this didn’t solve the problem ! I still have a broken MusicBrainz with a 100% CPU consumption.

  3. I also have a mandriva 2007.0 with a broken musicbrainz plugin in default amarok.

    I’d be curious to have a small sample (python for example) to test the musicbrainz service and see if it’s not simply broken on the server side. It would be a good idea to track that problem.

    I think the answer lie in the libtunepimp library. Default Amarok that come with Mandriva 2007 use v0.4.2 and my version is based on v0.5.2.
