Well, actually, as a maintainer of the packages, we should be committed
also to fix bugs in our stable releases.
I know that it is tempting to focus on sid and point people there, but
that's not really something that we should do.

Please, do.

I'm not really sure what problem is related to lastfm, but I'm also
running here with a patch that takes the covers from last.fm. I can
submit it, if you wish.
And, to be honest, this is one of the perils of having all those
network-dependent programs: the nature of many resources on the internet
is ephemeral and such problems will also arise when amarok 2 is in a
stable release.
So, please, do consider a stable update for the loss of functionality
that amarok has suffered.
If you need some help, I may lend a hand here.
Regards,
