@frealgagu: Thanks for clarifying so quickly!

@nicoadamo there is no a stable 2.9.70 yet, so I've been including the last commits in master branch. Version 2.9.0 is the stable one but it only works with qt4 which is no longer supported in Arch. Once the version 2.9.70 is released i'll keep it as the version of this package.

Sorry, but are version names fine inside the package? I compiled today theoretically "amarok 2.9.0.r258.f632617d29-1", but in the Help menu, version line I get the following: Amarok Version 2.9.70 Using KDE Frameworks 5.51.0

Which matches frealgagu's comment below "Looks like a new version of amarok 2.9.70 will be released soon."

I got confused.

Regards,

Nicolás Adamo

Amarok won't launch, and is crashing with MySQLe something failed! on library initialization failed, return code 1.

To fix this, you need to rebuild libssh with gnutls (libgcrypt) [a]. Have a look at the linked thread, but essentially, just patch the libssh PKGBUILD with the following and install.

Downgrade libssh to 0.8.2 version helps me.

kifuna commented on 2018-09-22 14:56 (UTC)

This error is most likely related to this: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/59719. I tried to compile libssh with DWITH_GCRYPT=ON (as was the case for version 0.8.2) and amarok starts normally again. Is there maybe another option to circumvent this issue?

After arch update 22.09.18 old version amarok show error on start.

Message: "The Amarok database reported the following errors: MySQLe something failed! on library initialization failed, return code 1 In most cases you will need to resolve these errors before Amarok will run properly."

I build this version but still see error.

Am I the only one getting "MySQLe something failed! on library initialization failed, return code 1" since today’s updates?

Rhinoceros commented on 2018-09-09 03:59 (UTC)

Yeah fair enough. That all makes sense. Thanks for the update!
