           Summary: (crash) amarok demands taglib 1.4 but (k)ubuntu only
                    delivers 1.3.1
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
               URL: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110477
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: amarok
        AssignedTo: jriddell at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: martin.ammermueller at bnro.de
         QAContact: kubuntu-bugs at lists.ubuntu.com


amarok versions 1.3.1 up to 1.3.5 are depending upon taglib version 1.4 but the 
kubuntu packages are only depending on taglib 1.3.1 (furthermore, taglib 1.4 is only 
accesible through backports, like http://uhu.name/ubuntu/). 
 
This makes amarok crash when trying to play or display metadata from mp3 files for 
which amarok tries to use taglib 1.4 API.
