Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: amarok

I keep all of my music and media on a partition separate from the one on
which /home lives.  Unfortunately, Amarok downloads podcasts to
~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/podcasts, and there is no way to make it dump
them in another directory.  The unhappy side-effect is that /home became
full and my mail client started screaming at me.

Ideally, podcasts would be dumped into a subdirectory of the music
library directory.  Another solution would be to add yet another option
to the already-crowded prefs window.

My workaround was to put a symlink at ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/podcasts
to the right place, but it's not exactly intuitive.  :-)
