[Bug 1756066] [NEW] [FFe] Amarok 2.9.0 for Bionic

[Rik Mills]

Public bug reported:

Amarok have released a first non-beta version since 2013.

We currently have 2.8.0 in the archive.

Announcement and changes since the 2015 beta:
https://amarok.kde.org/en/node/888

Nearly all bug fixes.

Announcement and changes 2.8.0 -> 2.8.90 (beta) we did not ship:
https://amarok.kde.org/en/node/887

The new features seem to work: e.g: ascii analyser

Valorie Zimmerman of KDE's Team Amarok reported successful testing with
the staged build in ppa:kubuntu-ppa/staging-misc

Should also fix the current archive FTBFS on s390x

I would not that due to lack of upstream releases and an unfinished
Qt5/KF5 port, Kubuntu has switched to the Qt5 app Cantata for our
default. The Qt4 Amarok has become an unseeded (iso or meta) leaf
package for us at the moment. However it is still very popular, so would
be great to get this mostly bugfix release into the bionic repos.
